Juicing : Orangey Goodness


These are a few juicing recipes filled with orangey goodness! 
Have fun juicing!

Orange Crudites
2 oranges
1/2 cucumber
2 carrots
1 stick celery

These three vegetables in this juice gently dilute the sweet, sharp taste of oranges, and make it a lighter, more refreshing drink.

Nutrients
Beta-carotene, folic acid, vitamin C, calcium, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, sulfur


Power Packed C
3 oranges
1 guava
1 handful strawberries

With three of the riches source of vitamin C mixed together, this is not only a delicious drink but is also a strong immune booster that helps keep illnesses at bay.

Nutrients
Beta-carotene, biotin, folic acid, vitamin B3, vitamin C, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, sulfur


Bitter Melon
2 oranges
2 thick slices of melon

Bitter Melon is actually the name of an Indian vegetable, but also sums up this juice's tangy twist on sweet melon. Use a cantaloupe or honeydew melon.

Nutrients
Beta-carotene, folic acid, vitamin C, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, sulfur

Citrus Sharp
3 oranges
1 lemon
1 lime

The colour of this refreshing juice hails a tart tickling of the tastebuds, and all that citrus fruit gives you a great immune boost.

Nutrients
Beta-carotene, folic acid, vitamin C, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, sulfer


Bloody Orange
3 oranges
1 beetroot

The name is a reference to this juice's thick red colour and not to blood oranges which are, unfortunately, all too rare - the earthy taste of beetroots cuts through the sharpness of good oranges well.

Nutrients
Beta-carotene, folic acid, vitamin C, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium
