Juicing

Lately we have been obsessed with juicing here. Will bought me a juicer for Xmas and I was  SOOO excited to open it! I literally thought about telling him that he had to let me try it out and just wrap the box to give to me on xmas.  A girl at work has been into juicing for a looooong time now, and she talks about it ALL the time and so I really felt like I needed to see what this is all about.

We watched reviews on Youtube of the juicer we got before trying ours out and it was soooo exciting. I literally cheered at the screen.

Our first drink was a concoction of everything available in my grandmothers kitchen- and so it was a bit heavy on the celery. Apparently celery has a very dominate taste (warning *use with caution*).  We made a mixture of honeydew, watermelon, apples, celery, and strawberries. Honestly, it wasn't that bad considering we literally opened the fridge and threw every veggie/ fruit we saw in there. I just have been afraid of celery ever since.

Since then we have branched out into other things- namely orange juice and a few other fruit combinations. Warning, blueberries are another one of those fruits that have a very dominating taste! Nothing like grapefruit/apple/orange/cauliflower/strawberry/blueberry juice that only tastes like blueberries!!

Not to mention, pina coladas that have been homemade in a juicer are to DIE for! You have to use coconut milk extract (which comes in a can) but there is nothing like fresh pineapple juice! Mimosas with fresh orange juice are pretty awesome too!

Cheers! Let's drink (fruit juice) to that!
