Double Citrus Carrot Juice

This morning myself and my Mr started our juice journey off with the Double Citrus Carrot Juice.


I got the recipe from the Reboot with Joe website, but slightly altered it. I had 6 carrots, 6 celery stalks, 3 large oranges and a lime. I peeled the oranges and the lime and then all that was left to do was to whizz it through the juicer! Easy. :) It was the first time I used the juicer and it made me jump as I put the first half of orange through! Ha ha. I was amazed at how much water/juice the celery and carrots had in them! They were the main ingredients that filled the jug up!


I filled my cup and my Mr's, we chinked & took and big gulp together... 
  Now, I'm not going to lie, it was quite a shock at first with the taste! Lol. All I could taste was celery. But then I got a hint of carrot and then orange.
I would liken it to perfume of all things!!! :D You know where you get top, middle and bottom notes?? Yep, just like that. How random! After the initial shock (I don't know what we were expecting mind!) and a few more sips, it was absolutely fine. We both polished off our cups no problem. That was breakfast sorted. :) 


***TIP***
One thing I will say, if you have issues with stomach acid, like myself, I would probably eat half a banana before consuming this juice, as I found that my acid levels went up a notch in my tummy & oesophagus. I don't like taking my sickness/acid tablets unless necessary so I will defo eat half a banana tomorrow morning. :)

Going to try another one tomorrow.
Shall let you know how that goes too!

Hope you are all having a fabby Bank Holiday Weekend!
