Power of Fresh, Raw Fruit & Vegetable Juices - Part 8



Season's Greetings, Everyone! Are you in the Holiday Spirit yet? I sure am! Christmas is my favorite holiday of the year. Yesterday, my little Maine coastal town got a surprise 5" of fresh, fluffy snow to get the Holidays started off right! The snow lightly coated the limbs of the fir and spruce trees in my forest - looks like a Currier & Ives Christmas painting. Now, all I have to do is watch the annual re-run of Dr. Seuss's "How The Grinch Stole Christmas" and I'll be all set. I have to watch the original cartoon, not the movie remake with Jim Carey. Today's juice recipe comes to you just in time for your Holiday celebrations. It's lip-smackin' luscious with a zingy-zippy spicy flavor and is a festive, frothy pale green. I hope you give it a try! Enjoy. Apple Ginger Ale This juice blend combines the core-warming, stimulating effects of flavorful ginger root with the tart-sweetness of Granny Smith green apples. It gently increases circulation, tastes absolutely delicious, is full of potassium and pep-promoting natural sugars, and is a great, incredibly thirst-quenching pick-me-up for that afternoon slump. Nothing saps energy and strength more than indigestion and its accompanying painful and embarrassing symptoms: cramps, gas, headache, and bloating. Right? Consider this drink a cure for what ails you. Plus, it's good for easing nausea that can occur during the flu or pregnancy. Apple Ginger Ale makes a beautiful non-alcoholic light green drink for St. Patrick's Day or Christmas festivities. Children and adults will love it! Ingredients: - 5 medium Granny Smith apples, including cores - 1-2 thumb-size pieces of ginger root (use the larger amount if you really like ginger's bite) Method: 1. Juice the apples and ginger root together. 2. Serve over ice & enjoy.
