Carrot Apple Cantaloupe Juice
So by now, we know that all the cool kids are drinking their fruits and veggies. Juicing has definitely become the cool thing to do, and today we’re totally jumping on the cool kid bandwagon. Juicing is a great way to get loads of nutrients into your body at a pretty fast pace. We recently got a juicer, and I think I’m in love. I’ve had so much fun coming up with random juice recipes. Some have been a hit, some have been a miss, it happens.
The majority of the time, I like to try to stay pretty vegetable heavy with my juices, only using a little bit of fruit to lightly sweeten it. But today, we’re going a little fruit heavy to change it up. This is the kind of juice that you want to drink in moderation because it does have a little bit higher sugar content than your average green juice. But, it’s natural sugar.
I’m so good at justifying.
(On a side note: Can we just take a minute to stare are the color of this juice. Holy moly, so pretty. It’s basically sunshine, happiness, rainbows and unicorns in a glass. Oh yes it is.)
This juice contains only three ingredients: carrots, apples, and cantaloupe. Yum-o. It is perfectly sweet, and will definitely satisfy a sweet tooth with a lot less guilt. Besides being sweet and delicious, this juice is loaded with vitamin A, C and beta-carotene from the carrots, vitamin C and polyphenols from the apples, and vitamins A, C and potassium from the cantaloupe. My favorite part about this little concoction is that it is great for the skin. Hashtag winning.
If you guys have any suggestions for some fun juice combinations, holla atcha girl.
