Broccoli Juice

When I was a kid I never eat broccoli, in fact I never knew what's broccoli. Even as an adult I seldom eat broccoli and I eat it cooked. I never eat it raw! But I read a lot of good reviews regarding how healthy this green vegetable. It is rich in vitamin B6, B1, vitamin A, vitamin E, copper, zinc, iron, magnesium, phosphorus,potassium, selenium, omega-3 fatty acids and dietary fiber. Just wow! How good is that?

Since one of my life goal is to eat healthy as much as I can I came up with my own version of mixed fruits with broccoli juice. I gathered all the ingredients that I can find in our kitchen and made this yummy broccoli juice.

I mixed banana, apple, cucumber, water melon,mangoes, and BROCCOLI.

It actually surprised me that this broccoli juice can be so delicious! 

Apple-Calamansi Juice For Summer Heat

It's been months of tremendous heat! The fact that we're experiencing el niño in summer makes it hotter. There's been no rain for a very long time. That is why I decided to share my beat the summer drink. It's very simple yet so delicious! All you need is a calamasi and an apple.You can substitute calamansi with lemon or you can even use mango instead of calamansi. Calamansi is very common in South East Asia and it is very inexpensive.

Ingredients:.

1 or 2 apple

1/2 cup calamansi juice
1/4 cup honey or sugar 

4 cups cold water

ice (optional)

Put the apple in the blender and blend it well. You can put some cubed apple to the finish product.

Squeeze the calamansi juice and separate the seeds from its juice. Then you can mix it water, blended apple, honey or sugar then your ice. You can adjust the measurement of you calamansi juice if it's too sour.

You can use honey for sweetener or any kind of sugar but personally I prefer to use brown sugar if honey is not available. Adding sweetener will depend on how sweet you want it. I like mine to be not so sweet preferably no sugar for me cause apple is already sweet but most people want it sweet so it's really up to your liking. 

Happy drinking!
