Juicing and Smoothies – Oh My!

April 5th, 2009 by misadventuresofmarla

When Jeremy’s parents visited they had gifts for us from Christ-Off and his family. Jeremy received The Sandman Endless Nights which is amazing. I received a book on juicing title “Super Juicer”.

It is a collection of tasty, easy to make, juices and smoothies. We’ve tried a few and they are delicious. My favorite so far is the Pink Zinger. It is a Grapefruit juice blend load with vitamin C that claims to give you energy, clear skin, and flush toxins from the intestines. While I haven’t noticed a difference yet, I’ve only drank it a few times. It’s delightful though.

If you’d like to try it out here is the recipe:
Note: You will need a juicer.

1 grapefruit
1 orange
1/2 lemon
1/2 lime

Peel all the fruit leaving the pith on (white skin).
Juice one at a time each fruit but letting it all collect in the same large glass.
Give it a little stir to mix everything good, drink and enjoy.

If you dislike the bitter taste of the grapefruit – do not mix sugar into it!
Add a teaspoon of honey or juice 1/2 an apple to sweeten it up. (Jeremy juices a full apple but I don’t think you can taste the grapefruit at all then.)

Thanks again Christ-Off and Kelly for the book. It’s wonderful!
