    fruit/veg juice ideas?

    Hi, I just discovered my mum has a juicer in her kitchen, she doesn't use it because its a pain to clean.. I just gave it a go with some apples, cleaned it and I think I can manage to do it regularly if I don't feel too lazy.

    Anyway, just want to see if anyone has any ideas for mixed fruit/veg juices that are good for pregnancy? Also, how long can you store juice in the fridge? I thought you'd need to drink it straight away, but is it ok to make a jug of it and have some the next day or does it go bad?

    cheers

    Hi, juices are so great for pregnancy and any combination really that you feel like. They really are best to drink on the day but depending on what type of juicer it is you may be able to keep it for a day. Enjoy

    Healthiest if drunk within 12 hours of juicing, after that time the colour and flavour start to change.

    I love carrot beetroot and apple, with or without an orange thrown in. Just go easy on the beetroot or you will be running to the dunny the next day

    In my first PG I used to crave carrot and watermelon juice all the time, that's another one that's really good.

    ZOMG - on the weekend I discovered this one:

    1 x beetroot
    3 x apples
    1 x small lemon
    1 x pinch of mint

    apple-carrot-celery-ginger-orange is also a fave
    watermelon-pear-beetroot is one I had with my sis once that was awesome, and always reminds me of her. We call it Barbie Juice.
    grapefruit-pear-carrot
    apple-strawberry-kiwi

    You can use anything. When it's fresh, it all tastes amazing.

    In general, carrot can go with any fruits, and apples can go with any vegetable, but other than that mixing fruits and veg together can cause really bad wind. They taste nice, but the after effects arent alwats pleasant
