Three new juices for us this week. The first one was really good. Very refreshing and nice.
2 Sweet Potatoes
3 Oranges
4 or 5 carrots
hunk of Ginger
It makes two glasses of yummy. Do it! It is good.
Terrible: Any juice involving a melon is like licking Satan's butt-hole.
We have officially sworn off any and all recipes involving melons of any type.
Here is one we tried, it was like drinking bile.
1 Cantaloupe
5 or 6 Carrots
I thought that this would be bad, so I added a lemon.
It was still bad.
Yak!
This next one is called "The Immune Booster!"
I didn't think it was bad. It was very "carroty" tasting.
Chris thought it was "meh..."
3 Carrots
3 Apples
1/2 Lemon
Hunk of Ginger
Looks bright and cheery!
