Spiced Apple Juice

Where would we be without apples? This crisp, rosy fruit, believe it or not, is a member of the rose family. They are sweet and juicy when eaten fresh, thirst quenching beverage when pressed and has mouthwatering flavors when preserved. 

They are one of the original health foods. We have all grown up hearing the old phrase “an apple a day keeps the doctor away”. When not eaten out of hand, fresh apples make a delectable addition to any cold breakfast cereal. Apples have marked affinity towards certain spices that enhance its natural flavor. We have learned to associate spiced apple with winter holidays.

This is my own version of spiced apple juice. Let’s see how it’s made.

Red apples	2
Canned apple juice	1 Cup
Mint leaves	¼ Cup + some for garnish
Fresh Ginger Juice	1 tsp.
Cinnamon Powder	½ tbsp.
Crushed ice	Optional
Salt	½ tsp.

Lemon slices	For garnish

Method:
In a blender or juicer, put diced apples along with ginger, mint leaves, canned apple juice and blend them all. Make up your own juice consistency (how much thick or thin) .Then add cinnamon powder, mint leaves, salt and mix well. In a tall glass, add crushed ice (optional), this prepared spiced apple juice and top your glass with the canned juice if desired. Garnish with lemon slices and mint leaves. Enjoy!
