Juice Recipe: Strawberry, cucumber and apple
We have been eating strawberries for a long time. Native Americans used them mixed with cornmeal, Europeans baked and cooked with them in the medieval times. South American cultures grew them as cultivars.
Pretty much any candy, cake or dessert has at least one strawberry flavor version.
Except for juicing. It is not common to find strawberry juicing recipes, despite their easy availability, perfect size for juicers and best of all, their intense, unique flavor.
Go ahead. Give them a try. This recipe is a great way to start juicing this ingredient conspicuous on pretty much everything except fresh juices.
An otherwise simple juice is transformed into an exotic recipe by adding the commonly used flavor yet rarely juice fresh strawberries.
The generic sweetness of apple and carrots is toned down by the neutral cucumber flavor for a well rounded juice, which then explodes with flavor and texture from the strawberries.
Sweet, dense and alluring. As a highly energetic juice, caution is recommended for those managing sugar intake. Serve fresh in small quantities.
