Pink Lemonade
By Kari Thorstensen
A pink juice in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness was the challenge. I checked out our Food Remedies guide for a list of foods that help prevent cancer and selected green cabbage from the cruciferous family, strawberries for the flavonoids, mint for the omega-3’s and lemon from the citrus family. The results were a delicious juice worthy of a pink ribbon.
As with all juices, adjust the ingredients to your taste. Like it minty? Add more mint. Not sure how much cabbage is 1/2 a head? Start with a quarter. Like it sweeter? Add a few more strawberries!
Ingredients
- 2 pears
- 1 small lemon
- 1/2 head of green cabbage (about 1 wedge)
- 1 large handful of lettuce
- 6 mint leaves
- 12 strawberries
Directions
- Wash all ingredients.
- Peel the lemon (optional).
- Add all produce through juicer and enjoy!
