Blood Builder is a delicious drink that all adults and kids will love and it is very simple to make at home. You can even serve this to your guests before your home party starts which I did. 🙂 This yummy recipe is taken from the book, Juice Yourself Slim by Jason Vale.
- 2 Apples
- ½ Beetroot (skin peeled)
- 1 Carrot
- ¼ Lemon (skin leave on)
- ¼ Avocado
- 4 cubes of ice (optional)
- In a juicer, juice all ingredients except Avocado and ice.
- In a blender, add in Avocado flesh, ice and the juice and blend away till smooth. Enjoy your drink!
Beetroot – Rich in Folate, Manganese and Potassium. Helps lower blood pressure, improve oxygenation to the brain, anti-inflammation, improve muscle oxygenation during exercise boosting stamina, suppress tumours. Rich in fibre, it helps to prevents constipation. See full nutritional report on Beetroot.
Apples – A good source of fibre and Vitamin C. See full nutritional report on Apple.
Carrot – An excellent source of vitamin A (in the form of carotenoids) plus a whole list of other nutrients. Carrot is beneficial for our vision, colon and heart. See full article here.
Lemon – Contains a high amount of Vitamin C, protecting you from cold and flu.
Avocado – A good source of healthy fat with loads of nutrients. Eaten with other foods, it enables your body to better absorb the nutrients. Find out more about avocado’s hidden benefits as well as check out its nutritional report
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.
Blood Builder Juice is from the book, Juice Yourself Slim, by Jason Vale also known as Juice Master. And I am loving all his juice recipes.
