Thinly sliced, crisp slices of pear tossed with succulent, lusciously juicy red papaya… tossed with the exotic nuance of rose water, with a bit of raw sugar for slight crunch… what a great starter course for any meal, and a lovely one for Valentine’s! Pair with this Pink Pussycat Martini and you’ve got a great [...]
What a lovely way to wake up! This beautifully sunny glass is full of Vitamin C, whole-food fiber, and the alkalizing, energizing, soothing power of fresh aloe vera gel! Add a bit of rose water (or orange blossom water… your pick), and you’ve got a light, refreshing day-starter with a wee bit of exotic appeal. And for [...]
This is the type of recipe that is so easily modifiable and so delicious, it could become all the rage in the mainstream if someone would start passing the word about it and making it for friends and family. It’s just delicately, fragrantly wonderful! You can add berries of any kind to create variety… you [...]
Oh, aloe, aloe, where have you been all my life. Crikey, I may have to rename this site the Aloe Smoothie Diet if I keep this up. I’m so in love with how fresh aloe feels energetically when I drink it, and it makes the most wonderfully delicate smoothies! If you’re into juice feasting, you [...]
This being New Year’s Eve, the juiced ingredients in this deceptively mild raw punch cocktail are symbolic for celebrating the New Year.

Heretofore, all of my pomegranate recipes have been blended or juiced, but here we have the lovely juicy-red gorgeousness of the pomegranate coming out in full color, tossed with a light honey-rose dressing to stain the apples an exquisite shade of pink. A perfect side dish for any holiday table… or just make it and [...]
I am in love with this cocktail! It’s intended especially for Thanksgiving, Christmas, and other Holiday Celebrations, and is a no-alcohol cocktail that tastes very grownup and slightly exotic! It is just the loveliest, festive shade of fuschia and, for those who enjoy cranberries and rose, will ramp up the holiday spirit wherever you make it. I [...]
Yah, I do love these Barbie pink drinks. And I do love my rose water. But you can make this without the rose – it’s delicious either way. The pear in this smoothie gives a juicy voluptuousness which plays so nicely against the the tannic tartness of the pomegranate. And honestly, it almost doesn’t get [...]
I wanted to make a light, creamy, floral-tasting smoothie with a touch of rose water… but using extremely pedestrian, everyday ingredients: collard greens and apple. And boy, does this Live Green Smoothie recipe hit it outa the ballpark! This green smoothie is the prettiest shade of creamy spring-green, is potently rich in chlorophyll, minerals, and [...]
