Pink Lady, Pacific Rose Apple & Carrot Juice ...

Not always being so quick to grab a soda pop, it's refreshing to make your own juices with out all the additives. I can remember my grandmother having an apple press machine that would make applesauce as well as juice. We use to play with it as kids and I had gotten my hand stuck in it. My grand mother lit in to us too. She had one of those trees that she'd get switches off of . That day wasn't a good one for me ...

Today we are presented with modern technology of a juicer. If you don't own one, I suggest you make that investment.  Yes they are nice to have, especially if you are trying to become healthier. Trust me the investment pays off. Have you seen the prices on some of those juices?? Over time, the price of store bought will have paid for your juice several times over. That's just my opinion.



Wash and clean your fruit very well. For the apples I like to core them before adding to the juicer. I have an apple slicer and corer (all-in-one). It makes for easier handling of the apples. Snip the ends off the carrots and toss 'em down. There is no need to remove the skin ...




To make this juice you'll need: 

2 Pink Lady Apples - washed and cored
2 Pacific Rose Apples - washed and cored
4lg Carrots - washed with ends removed
1nub of Ginger - skinned

Push all ingredients threw the juicer making sure you alternate the apples and carrots with juicing the ginger last. Stir and pour into your favorite glass/goblet. 



Juicing is a good way to introduce your children to vegetables and help them to get their daily amounts. It's easier for some to drink their vegetables than to eat them ...  
                





Happy Juicing
