Hi Lloyd,
I found this awesome recipe and had to share it with you.
Please feel free
to pass it on to anyone you know who has Hep C.
As I'm sure you know, beets are extremely good for the liver.
I don't care
for beets, except I do like beet juice. Plain beet juice was
okay, but never
thrilled me, then I tried the following recipe. This stuff
is delicious! I make it every weekend and it is my after exercise
"tonic." I am going to try the same recipe with
Stevia to cut out the sugar. I'll let you know how that turns
out. The ingredients seem strange, but MAN when you make this
stuff it's great! You will need about 16 beets for the full
recipe.
Beet Lemonade |
Yields: 1 1/2 quarts |
2 cups water |
1 cup sugar |
1 tablespoon chopped lemon
zest |
4 whole cloves |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
3/4 cup fresh lemon juice |
4 cups fresh beet juice |
8 large mint leaves |
Mint sprigs and thinly sliced
lemon (garnish) |
Over moderate heat add water, sugar, zest, cloves and salt
together in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer. Cook for
23 minutes or until sugar is completely dissolved. Cool and
add lemon and beet juice along with the mint leaves.
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Strain and serve in tall
glasses with ice cubes and garnished with a mint sprig and
a lemon slice in each glass.
Your fan,
