The variation in activities today was nice, because I had no variation in juice. It turns out that my cantaloupe was so ripe that when I sliced into it today, I knew I couldn't save any for tomorrow or later in the week. That cantaloupe had to be today's juice. So, I made three servings of a juice my friend Jason sent to me called Betacarotine Juice.
- 4-6 carrots (I used 5 per serving)
- 1/3 cantaloup
This juice is a simple but tasty treat. And given that I needed to use all my cantaloupe today, I just tripled the carrots and used the entire melon for my day's juice.
While I love this juice, a little variation today would have been nice. If I hadn't needed my orange for later in the week, I would have made a different cantaloupe combination. Oh well.
In case you have the same issue and need to make juices with your entire cantaloupe all at once, here's another juice to enjoy: Berry Best. It sounds delicious, and I wish I had those ingredients on hand (no blueberries or cherries in my fridge right now) to try to make this yummy drink.
Berry Best*
- 1 cup blueberries
- 1 cup pitted cherries
- 1/2 cup grapes
- 1/4 cantaloupe cut into wedges
I'll definitely look forward to making this once cherries are in season!
I ended up drinking the second serving of juice while having dinner with Sheri, post-walk. Truth be told, her noodle bowl at Thanh Vi looked and smelled a lot more appetizing than my juice. =)
The final serving was consumed while watching Jurassic Park in 3-D with a group of friends. I was lucky that I drank it during a short section of the movie where I wasn't catching my breath or jumping in my seat. I didn't realize how much of the movie I forgot and was surprised by. It was great!
I hope you all had a great weekend too!
And I'm looking forward to some variation in drinks tomorrow.
Until then, have a great night!
