Anyone else not feeling cuke juice?

Date: September 05, 2010 03:45AM Even when combined with carrot and other more yummy juices, I feel like cucumber juice brings down the taste. It is so watery that it dilutes sweetness. And the cuke taste is mighty strong! I am disappointed because I so wanted to love it. The abundance of water really adds to the volume. Edited 1 time(s).

I go through "spells" where I am feeling a particular fruit/veg. but then later dislike it. I am currently into cuke juice. But, I am strongly disliking avocados right now. Can't even stand the thought of eating one... Re: Anyone else not feeling cuke juice?

Date: September 05, 2010 03:03PM cuke is related to melon and i love the way it "tames down" strong green mixes.
i also mix cuke with melon rinds. melon rinds are loaded with good minerals. try adding a little jalapeno and evan garlic. sunflower sprouts also make a nice combo with cuke. jj Re: Anyone else not feeling cuke juice?

hope that helps. jj Re: Anyone else not feeling cuke juice?

Date: September 12, 2010 01:51PM I've always found cucumber works well in juice. If you're using enough other produce you should have a very flavorful juice, not at all watered down. Maybe you're getting cucumbers with bitter skins. If so, peeling them may help. Or if they're not organic, try organic ones. Simple Raw Recipes & Health Tips Re: Anyone else not feeling cuke juice?

I've found Carrot Juice, or Celery Juice, with Greens juiced along with it makes a strong, healthy drink....WY Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
