Brazilian Shores


Serving: 3 medium glasses

Juicing ingredients

  • 1 pineapple
  • 1/2 lemon
  • 2 tablespoons runny honey
  • 1 thumb sized piece of root ginger
  • 1/2 pint filtered / distilled water (or 2 apples)

Overview

The inspiration for this juice recipe came from a Brazilian restaurant and it sure hits the spot and allows for a little experimentation on your part.

Don’t be scared to experiment with different proportions of blended and juiced pineapple.

This juicer recipe goes down a treat when accompanied with a snack of Guacamole, sour cream and crudités.

Directions

Remove the pineapple skin (if organic you can leave a little on). Peel the ginger and then juice it along with most of the pineapple and the lemon. Mix in the honey, do not use set honey, as it will not mix into the drink properly. If you have a blender you can blend the remainder of the pineapple and mix it in with the juice, otherwise just juice the rest of the pineapple. Add the chilled water and mix to form a delicious long drink.

If you want to increase the nutrient count you can juice two good-sized apples instead of adding the water although this slightly dilutes the Latin flavours.
