Hi there ;)
I think , we could do with one more recipe for a Healthy Cocktail N.3 :D
This is a bit different from the other two.
My special ingredient for this one are Dandelions.
They are growing this time of year and they are everywhere around us...Not many people know about how great this flowers are. Many gardeners try to get rid of Dandelions as apparently they spoil beautiful green grass. I don't think they do.
They are beautiful yellow colour, so it makes you feel like sun is shining even though its not ;) Later on they change into white fluffy snow balls ;) so it feels like winter ;) joking. Am sure you all recognize them.
Dandelions are great source of vitamins and minerals. They are cleansing blood and liver. They help to get rid of acne , lower blood sugar and cholesterol .They melt away kidney stones and so much more...It is the best source of Lecithin in the world. It contains all 8 amino acids. What is better than that!? You can get all you need in the most natural way imaginable...without pills. It gets into your blood stream so much faster...
You can use all plant. Dandelion leafs are great in the salad also. The plant is a bit bitter, so I prefer it in my juice... You need to eat Dandelions fresh straight away you picked them, to get the most of their health properties ..or juice them as soon as you bring them home ...
You will need for 2 glasses : 15 stinging nettles
1 lime
1 orange
1 satsuma
2 apples
10 leafs of Dandelions
6 Dandelion flowers with stems
Juice it all together.
You will come up with this lime colour Healthy Cocktail.
Give it a go and let me know, how did you like my recipe ;)
When I told my hubby I can use "those garden weeds" for a cocktail he was laughing ;-). He suggested I should have as many drinks as I like until our garden is free of dandelions as long as he doesn't have to drink it. Well I'd really like to try that healthy cocktail - I always like to try new things - but as I said an other time I got rid of my juicer. Maybe we can have one at your place for a start? Cinnamon x
