(30 Days of Juicing Day #12 - Cherry Limeade)
This idea for homemade Cherry Limeade Juice popped into my head after visiting the website All About Juicing and seeing this recipe for Pineapple Cranberry Juice.
I didn't really know if I could successfully juice cherries, but I really wanted to know - so I gave it a shot.
This version of cherry limeade is sweet and tart, just exactly what I was craving this morning.
Generally I prefer my fresh juice to be more earthy and green, but sometimes you just need a little extra sweetness to start your day 🙂
The Skinny on Cherry Limeade Juice
According to my calculations, each 1 cup serving has about 202 calories and 5* Weight Watchers Points Plus. (We only count the juice from the pineapple, apple and cherries to determine the points plus. The lime gives negligible calories that we're not too concerned about.)
Be sure to check out the video below that discusses some little known facts about tart cherries.
