Brighten up your day with this delicious citrus-based Liquid Sunshine Juice, it’s full of vitamin C, it’s paleo and vegan!
For all those raw juice addicts out there, here is a delicious fresh juice drink that is sure to give you a sunny start to your day, even if it’s cloudy outside!
When I tasted this perfectly sweet-tart juice, all I could think of to name it was Liquid Sunshine. The name says it all!
This juice is full of vitamins A and C, and thanks to the blood oranges, lots of lycopene too. I love Pink Lady apples because they are firm and dense, and have the perfect mix of sweet and tart. They have a bold fruity flavor and some really good varieties even hint of fruity-wine.

awesome juice. did you know that blood oranges dont have lycopene, only pigmented navels, the cara caras do. real blood oranges like moros contain anthocyanins which are hundreds of times more potent and good for you.
Mmmmmm Tasty! Great post 🙂
