Fruit and vegetable juices are loved by all those who believe in a healthy diet. Fresh homemade vegetable and fruit juices are always better than the packed ones and can be easily prepared in many different and interesting combinations.

So let’s put our juicer to work this winter and make some really healthy juices from our favourite fruits and veggies. First off, having a quality blender like the Kenwood HB 792 is a necessity. Then if you prefer fruit juice, citrus fruits are a great choice for the season. Loaded with vitamin C, such fruits are also a great source of bioflavonoid, provided you do not remove the white inner skin. You can create your own menus with juicy fruits like oranges and lemon. You can prepare a Beauty Cocktail by putting equal quantities of oranges and cucumber in your juicer. However, if you are down with cold, go for a plain orange juice. You can also make a Vegetable Cocktail with tomato, pepper, pole bean and cucumber or Lemon & Lime Ginger Ale with grapes, lemon, ginger and apple.

Whenever making vegetable juices, try to include the leaves and stems for maximizing the proportion of vitamins and minerals. Vegetable juices are ideal for the calorie conscious people. Ingredients like beetroot, eggplant, cabbage, carrot and spinach can be used for creating smoothie drinks. You can also add strawberries, raspberries, grapefruit and kiwis to enhance the taste of these vegetable juices. The simplest and the best way are to try different combinations with your favorite vegetables and fruits.

So innovate your own recipes and serve your family with these healthy and yummy saps.
