The weather outside is bone-chilling, and it’s easier for me to catch the flu. With the cold air nipping at my nose, I’ve decided to boost my immune system. Naturally, my go-to solution is to load up on juices that pack a powerful punch of vitamin C.
Sure, citrus juices like Blood Orange Juice and Calamansi Juice may come to mind, but the true sovereign of high vitamin C content is none other than Guava Juice drink.
The drink doesn’t only have a tantalizing taste and invigorating smell but also contains a powerhouse of benefits. Loaded with vitamin C, it’s my secret weapon against the flu and those pesky winter colds. Rich in antioxidants, Guava Juice is the drink that promotes overall skin health and aids in cell repair.
So, here’s how to make Guava Fruit Juice:
Ingredients
- 4 ripe guavas
- 2 cup water for blending
- Ice cubes optional
Instructions
- Wash the guavas thoroughly under running water. Cut them into quarters, removing the seeds and the hard ends.
- In a blender, combine the guava quarters with enough water to cover them. Blend until you achieve a smooth consistency.
- To ensure a smooth juice without pulp, strain the blended mixture using a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth. Press down on the solids to extract as much juice as possible.
- Transfer the freshly squeezed guava juice into a pitcher. Add ice cubes directly to the pitcher or individual glasses.
- Pour the guava juice into glasses and garnish with a slice of fresh guava for an extra touch.
