was an unhealthy addiction, but I seem to be getting a hell of a lot more fruit then I usually do, and genuinely feel a lot better for it! I also find because the juices are pretty thick, you can substitute them for a quick breakfast if you're in a hurry, or as a refreshing afternoon snack. Here are some of my faves!
Berry Burst - This one is so simple and refreshing, I usually make up a whole jug because I end up drinking so much of it! For a jug's worth, I use 1 packet of frozen raspberries, 1 punnet of fresh blueberries and about a pint of orange juice, but you can use more or less as you like :-) Just chuck it all in a blender (remember the lid!), and add an ice cube before drinking if you want it to be even more refreshing.Wagamama's Juices I absolutely love Wagamama's food, but their juices are also delicious! One of their new additions to the menu is Apple, Mint, Celery and Lime Juice. I usually hate celery with a passion (as my friend Ellie will tell you!), but in this juice the flavour is subdued by the more powerful ingredients, especially the lime juice which I think makes a nice change to lemon. I had this with a Katsu Curry the other day (nomnomnom) but would happily get it to take out on it's own, or attempt making it at home, it was so delcious!
Linda Wagner's Juices I recently discovered Linda Wagner's blog which has some great recipes, both sweet and savoury, to help detox and weight loss. Although some of the colours of the juices are a little alarming, they also sound amazing! One I can't wait to try includes Peaches, Mangoes and Spinach, as well as the Strawberries, Mangoes and Spinach one, both bright green but so good for you, I reckon I can ignore the colour...
The best thing about smoothies and juices is that you can use whatever you have about; I've made a really nice pear, grape, lemon and cherry juice one, as well as a strawberry, orange and mango. I'd definitely recommend trying them, especially as it gets closer to summer and all these fruits are about!
