Natural Juice Recipe Avoids Huge Sugar Amounts [RECIPE]

I started looking at my sugar intake recently, and was actually shocked at how much sugar there is in juices that I thought were healthy for me!

I've learned that I need to translate labels. Just because it says 100% Real Juice doesn't necessarily mean that it is healthy.

So, as I'm searching for great ways to make my chia smoothies, I realized that standard juices aren't the best way to go. 26 grams of sugar per serving is not complimenting all the good the Mila is bringing to my body.

That's why I was so glad to see a recipe idea for natural vitamin water on Facebook.

1) The Classic : Lemon/Cucumber:

Mix in a pitcher: 10 cups of water + 1 cucumber and a lemon, thinly sliced + 1/4 cup fresh finely chopped basil leaf + 1/3 of finely chopped fresh mint leaves. Leave in the refrigerator overnight before serving.
