seasonal juices you must try this summer are honestly the only thing keeping me sane right now, no cap. I’m writing this on my phone sitting in my car with the AC blasting because my apartment feels like the inside of someone’s mouth and I just chugged an entire 32-oz watermelon juice in like four minutes. https://www.farmhouseonboone.com/watermelon-juice-recipe/
why i’m suddenly a seasonal juice psycho Seasonal Juices You Must
okay so last week i was at the farmers market in 102° Dallas heat (why do i live here) and this lady handed me a sample of peach-basil-lime juice and i literally moaned out loud in public. like full-on embarrassing moan. people turned around. i bought three bottles and drank one in the parking lot like an animal. anyway that’s the origin story of how i spent $87 on juice in seven days.
the one that actually wrecked me Seasonal Juices You Must
there’s this place in east austin that does fresh cucumber-mint-lime with a splash of aloe vera and i’m not exaggerating when i say it tastes like if spa water had a baby with summer 2017. i cried the first time i tried it. not cute crying either, we’re talking snot-bubble crying because it reminded me of my grandma’s garden and now i go there twice a week and the guy knows my order and i want to die of shame but also i can’t stop. https://minimalistbaker.com/easy-cold-pressed-peach-ginger-juice/
my failed attempts at not being broke Seasonal Juices You Must
tried to make the fancy peach one at home. bought a $60 juicer on amazon that arrived broken. used my blender instead. forgot to pit the peaches first. blender sounded like it was dying. ended up with peach butter that tastes like regret and ginger. my roommate walked in, took one look at the crime scene on my counter, and just said “…no” and left. still finding peach fuzz in my kitchen three days later.
current juice power ranking (subject to change because i’m dramatic)
- watermelon-chia-lime (with tajín rim because i have problems)
- pineapple-ginger-turmeric (shots of this when i feel a cold coming, works 60% of the time)
- cantaloupe-cayenne (tastes like chaos but in a hot way)
- beet-orange-carrot (tastes like dirt but my skin looks good??)
- celery (i hate myself)
the mexican grocery store bag juice that ruined me Seasonal Juices You Must
there’s this little tienda by my house that puts sandía juice in a plastic bag with a straw and a little chile-limon seasoning and i have consumed an unhealthy amount. last time i went the señora called me “mi reina” and i almost proposed marriage on the spot. it’s $3. fifty shades of bougie juice wishes.
anyway i now carry a cooler full of seasonal juices in my trunk like a soccer mom but for vibes. my friends mock me until they’re hungover and then suddenly i’m the plug. typical. https://www.seriouseats.com/how-to-make-tajin-rim-for-drinks
yeah idk how to end this
just drink the damn seasonal juices okay?? your body is like 70% water and right now mine is 70% watermelon juice and questionable choices and i’ve never been happier. or more dehydrated. whatever.
