Request for this at your juice stall

Do you order ABC juice from a fruit stall? ABC (which stands for Apple, Beetroot and Carrot) is a common juice that people would order. Now, you just need to ask them to juice in a few slices of lemon,  a small piece of avocado and that will make it your Blood Builder. No avocado? Even adding abit of lemon will make your ABC drink taste more delicious. Try it.

I actually tweaked this recipe abit due to the size of the ingredients. The original calls for 2 small carrots. Instead of using 2, I use 1 big carrot.

From this recipe, I learned a trick. And that is for juice that has a sharp taste, blend the juice with Avocado to tone down and smooth out the taste. 😉 Enjoy.
