Deficiency of vitamins and sun with the approach of spring began to be felt more and more. And it so happened that we gave up cold. In order not to leave any chance of the disease on the continuation of the banquet, we have decided to resort to a powerful vitamin bomb and remember about our trip to Istanbul and at the same time about his favorite juice, which not only contains a huge amount of vitamin C and increases hemoglobin, but also to quickly cope with the pre-spring longing!
A trip to Istanbul memorable to me not only because of the breathtaking city, the sea and people, but also thanks smiling sellers of fresh juices, standing at almost every corner in the central part cities. Orange, pomegranate, grapefruit, carrots, kiwi, strawberry, or a mix - the choice ran his eyes. The favorite was the pomegranate as grenades there as sweet as honey.
Back in Kiev we first went in search of the press for citrus. Although in reality it is most convenient to press to squeeze the juice from pomegranates. So the standard juicer turns grenades in brown mixture with a bitter taste of seed.
In our lives there's such a simple press Vitesse (France). It cost a little less than 30 dollars. The selection of such pieces is enormous, as the price range - from simple $ 30 to $ 200 -300 $. Our press for two years and it is fully paid for its cost.
How it works? You just halved oranges and pomegranates, put flesh on the lip of the cup and a special push. Oranges and grenades should not be too large, otherwise the press will be very difficult.
We first we press one half of oranges, and then, when they are already half empty, put one on another and then we press - so it turns 1.5 times more juice. Although it is called "citrus press," but in fact he decides to squeezing juice from a pomegranate problem, plus obtained pretty good juice with pulp (strawberry), mashed kiwi and sometimes even tomato juice with pulp of fresh tomatoes for spaghetti.
My favorite ratio - 4 small orange and 1 grenade. It turns out very tasty and healthy! The main thing to pick oranges were sweet - they cover the acid pomegranate (if caught is not very sweet).
Your health and not get sick! Spring is coming ;)
