Festive Full Juice Mocktail

This is a juice disguised as a mocktail, to bring health to holiday banquets while preserving  taste and cheerfulness. Nutrients in pineapple, clementines and ginger promote digestion and are packed with a high content of vitamin C, anti-inflammatory substances and antioxidants.

Serving: about 3.5 cups of juice

Ingredients 

  • 33 oz ripe pineapple
  • 27 oz clementines or mandarins
  • 2 inches ginger root
for garnish
  • ½ tbs coconut flour
  • ½ tbs coconut sugar
  • some mint leaves
  • some pomegranate kernels
  • a slice of lemon or lime

Directions

Step 1 

Peel and dice the pineapple. Peel the clementine fruits and the ginger root. Juice the fruit and the ginger with a slow juicer or a centrifuge.

Step 2

Put the coconut flour and the coconut sugar in a small plate and mix them. Wet the rim of a glass where you will put the juice, then press it onto the plate so that the powder adheres.

Step 3

Fill the glass with the juice, decorate with the lemon slice, mint leaves and pomegranate kernels.

Pro tips

For a more bubbly effect, you can add some sparkling water.

The pineapple core is rich in the beneficial bromelain: juice it, too.

The slow juicer preserves more nutrients in the juice than centrifuge.
