Maybe I should have called the blog "Oh Lordy Jesus Not Grapefruit!"

I didn't like the last grapefruit concoction that we made, but there was one more in the refrigerator, so I had to find another recipe. I found one with a beet in it. I said to myself "well, the grapefruit should cover the beet taste and the beet should tone down the grapefruit taste. Surely it will taste okay." So we had a Grapefruit Clementine Beet Juice. Chris thought it was fantastic! I took one sip and gave mine to him. Yak!
Grapefruit Clementine Beet Juice
1 beet
1 grapefruit
some clementines ( I had 3 so that it what I used)
1 carrot (optional)
After I looked at the ingredients, I had reservations about the mix, so I added a carrot to help mellow it out.
It still tasted horrible! Unless you like unsweetened grapefruit juice. Then you might like it.  

Tonight for dinner, I decided to try a juice that I found on Pinterest. Here is the picture from that site.
I don't know if all the claims are true. But all the ingredients are healthy and good for you, so you can't go wrong here. This didn't tell me how much of each thing to use, so I guessed. 
Miracle Cure Juice
1 beet ( I used the beet greens too)
2 apples
1 lime
1 piece ginger
3 carrots
2 celery 

I liked this one, and Chris didn't. He was able to get it down though. It is sour with a little kick from the ginger. You can smell the beet, but not taste it. Yum ...? Good enough.
