We have found some more juicing blends that will power up your day!

1. Refreshing Mint Cooler

Ingredients:

  • 1 fennel bulb and fronds
  • 1 cucumber, peeled if not organic

  • 1 handful of mint

Directions:

1. Cut produce to fit your juicer’s feed tube. Juice ingredients and stir.

2. Pour into a glass over ice and drink as soon as possible. Serves one or two.

2. Broccoli Surprise

This juice is excellent for diabetics. Broccoli could help reverse the damage diabetes inflicts on blood vessels.

Ingredients

  • 1 or 2 carrots, scrubbed well, tops removed, ends trimmed
