Watermelon & Strawberry Juice Pops
By Claire Georgiou, Reboot Naturopath, B.HSc ND
Pops or ice blocks are a fun way to consume your juices in the warm weather, since they feel like you’re eating solids when in fact your consuming juice. They can be made light and fruity for kids, including big kids, or you can make them with vegetable ingredients. You can even enjoy them on a 100% Reboot juice-only program as a juice replacement. Any juice recipe including the all-famous mean green can be made into a fun juice pop in the hot weather to keep you cool, hydrated and nourished! Or you can make our rainbow pops to increase your intake of colors in the rainbow.
