Lately I've been powering up my home practice with some high intensity power flows. In order to properly fuel and hydrate my body, I've been loving these two juice recipes: A refreshing watermelon berry juice & an alkalizing green juice!
You don't need a fancy juicer for these recipes; just fresh ingredients and a blender!
WATERMELON BERRY JUICE
INGREDIENTS:
*2 cups fresh watermelon
*1 cup fresh strawberries
*1 handful fresh blueberries
*2 cups water
DIRECTIONS:
Add you ingredients to a blender & blend on high for 2-3 minutes.
Pour into a 32 ounce mason jar & enjoy!
HEALTHY GREEN JUICE
INGREDIENTS:
*1 celery stalk
*1 cup kale, or any greens you prefer
*1 apple
*1 lemon, squeezed
*2 cups water
DIRECTIONS
Add all your ingredients to a blender and blend on high for 2-3 minutes.
Pour into a 32 ounce mason jar & enjoy!
NOTES:
-These juices are a wonderful way to start the day but, can be enjoyed any time of the day!
-Since these juices are made in a blender, they do contain some pulp. If you're not a pulp person, let the juice settle for about 5 minutes and allow the pulp to rise to the top. You can then scoop out the pulp and add more water to thin it out. You can also use a cheese cloth or a fine strainer.
-You can also turn these recipes into smoothies by using non-dairy milk instead of water and using frozen fruit instead of fresh fruit.
-Bring these juices on the mat or to your next workout to replenish and refuel your body!
