Refreshing drink…
If you’re looking for a refreshing drink that’s perfect for any time of day, you can’t go wrong with a glass of orange strawberry juice.
Not only is it delicious, but it’s also packed with vitamins and minerals that your body craves. In this blog post, I’ll show you how to make a simple yet satisfying orange strawberry juice that’s sure to be a hit with your taste buds.
I add Basil seeds to most of my freshly squeezed juices, they are a good source of fiber, vitamins, and minerals, including calcium, iron, and magnesium. They are also believed to have various health benefits, such as promoting digestion, reducing inflammation, and regulating blood sugar levels.
Basil seeds are similar in appearance to chia seeds but have a milder flavor and a crunchier texture. When soaked in water or other liquids, the seeds develop a gelatinous coating that makes them soft and slippery. It doesn’t have any taste though, pretty bland.
- Oranges- 2
- Strawberries, ripe- 5
- Coconut sugar or white sugar- 1 tbsp
