Introduction

It's hot as H-E-double hockey sticks today, and I needed something cool, sweet and refreshing... it is!

This is one of the recipes I am using in my quick start "juice" fast... I got the idea from the documentary, "Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead". I'll be consuming 5 to 6 "juices" along with 8 glasses of water a day for the next 5 or so days. It's made using a Juice Extractor... save the pulp to use in other recipes, add some back to your juice or compost it. Nutritional info will vary, for example, fiber listed in nutritional info will apply only if you add pulp back to your juice, otherwise only soluble fiber will apply, and some nutrition will remain with pulp, but approx. 95% of vitamins, minerals and nutrients will remain with juice. This recipe is good for ANY time, not just for juice fasting, and it's a great way to add fruit and veggies to your diet. :)
