2. milk+frozen berry mix (you know...like blue berry and stuff)+ a load of fresh Strawberries+cream(just a little) + vanilla powder+ice





3.orange juice + mango + raspberries + ice

5. (this one is my favorite ) cut watermelon into cubes and freez them , then blend it alone...when drinking it in a hot summer day..you'll feel in heaven !!





6. oh c'mon ! get creative ! mix whatever you want and try it ! I hope you enjoy your drinks :)Does anyone have any favorite homemade fruit drinks to share with a teenage girl?
It's great that you want to eat healthier but fruit juices are not particularly healthy.





Juice is high in sugar and you are missing out on the fibre that you get when you eat whole fruit.





If you really want to drink your fruit make smoothies instead of juicing as the whole fruit (including the fibre) is added to the smoothie.





Try whizzing up a banana, strawberries, low fat yogurt and skim milk together. Add a little honey for extra sweetness if desired. Swap the strawberries for raspberries or peaches or an additional banana to get some variety in flavours. This way you are getting protein from the milk and yogurt (which will keep you feeling full) and good bacteria from the yogurt (which is important for digestive health).
i like to use plain yogurt, (1/2 cup), a handful of mixedberries,a banana, an orange, and ice...i use carrot juice(from health food stores or v8 fruit veggie mix juice from the grocer) to thin it out! soo good





also juicers are fun, so you can incorporate veggies into your juicing!
Coopers' home brew Lager is a good start but you'll have to add your own strawberries
why dont you make a strawberry shake





what is best for me is to make a milk shake with bananas


maybe add some strawberries
bananas and peanut butter! it takes tha cravying of choco away (supposedly)
