Quick post! Here is a fall-themed juice that fights fat. Read more about the health benefits here. For the most flavorful results, buy the ingredients from Whole Foods or you local farmers market. 

recipe

  • 4 large carrots
  • 4 celery stalks
  • 3 apples
  • 1-2 pinches cinnamon
  1. Rinse the ingredients thoroughly under cool running water. Trim the tips and ends off the carrots and celery stalks. You don't need to peel the carrots, as the juicer will take care of that. Core and quarter the apples.
  2. Run the prepared carrots, celery, and apples through a centrifugal juicer. Remove the pitcher from the juicer and stir in 1-2 pinches of the cinnamon. Drink immediately.

Here's a rare glimpse of my weekday food regimen. Despite what you see on Spice & Hutch, I eat healthy most of the time. I share recipes and photos for party food because I think it's wayyy more fun than the healthy stuff. I mean, let's face it: I would rather feast my eyes on salmon rillettes & brioche than a spinach salad. 

But I digress. If you're looking for a new kickstart to your day or a summery BBQ beverage, try my watermelon and mint juice. It's a crowd pleaser and super easy to make!

recipe

  • 1 large watermelon
  • 2 large handfuls fresh mint
  • 4 limes
  1. Cut the watermelon in half. Scoop out the filling with a spoon and place in a large bowl. Strip the mint leaves from their stems. Peel the limes.
  2. Run the ingredients through a juicer. I use a Breville and it's life-changing.
  3. Pour the juice into a glass pitcher and refrigerate for 1 hour.
