Healthy Drinks

If you're looking for a healthy, refreshing pick-me-up, open the pages of Healthy Drinks and pore over the wide variety of tantalizing beverages. Leafing through the full-color photographs, you'll be tempted by the exotic fruit juice combinations, like mango and peach--so thick it's recommended to be served with a spoon. Or how about a "banana and pineapple smoothie" energy booster? For something less sweet, try the heartier "salad in a glass" or "watercress, celery and cucumber" juice.

This colorful volume extols the benefits of choosing lower fat, high energy drinks over commercially produced sweet drinks. Fresh fruit and vegetable juices aid digestion and the absorption of nutrients and help to neutralize excess proteins and fat from other foods. You'll discover the best way to store, prepare, and serve more than 60 refreshing drinks. From apple, berries and carrots, to wheat germ, yogurt and zesty spring vegetables, you'll be sure to find a favorite to return to again and again.
