FRESH MOJITO



This smoothie is so exotic and good for you. The combination of blended
fresh mint leaves and lime juice elevates it to a whole new level of light and
refreshing. The papaya grounds this drink with nutritional goodness and
gives it the sweetness and body it needs.

Ingredients
8 slices pineapple
1 lime
3 oz water
1 frozen banana
1 handful fresh mint
½ small papaya
dash agave nectar ice (optional)

Method
Juice the pineapple and lime. Add the water to the juicer to flush the juice
through. Transfer the juice to a blender and add remaining ingredients.
Blend, starting on a low setting and then switching to a higher setting, for
about 1 minute. Serve in a tall glass.

LOVE YOUR PEACHES




Peaches have become the favourite fruit of our summers. They are the
largest of all the stone fruits and are packed with nutrition. Peaches are full
of vitamin A, which promotes good vision and improves skin health, and
vitamin C, known for its immune-boosting benefits. The skin of the peach
is also packed with nutrients, so don’t peel your peaches, please! Let
peaches ripen on the kitchen counter, and use them in smoothies once they
are soft. You can easily substitute nectarines for peaches in this smoothie.

Ingredients
2 oranges
8 oz bottled mango juice
2 peaches, sliced ice (optional)

Method
Juice the oranges. Transfer juice to a blender and add remaining
ingredients. Blend, starting on a low setting and then switching to a higher
setting, for about 1 minute. Serve in a tall glass.
