Rainbow Juice Trio

In Melbourne it was like a switch turned from beautiful sunny weather to blustery, rainy and freezing cold winter weather. Those of you down under will know that Melbourne has notoriously bad winters where it is far from being a beautiful snowy wonderland like Europe and North America but instead we more so get rain sleeting in your face thanks to high gust winds. This year it took no time for so many of my friends, family, colleagues and even myself to come down with a nasty flu or cold. As soon as you hear the sniffles happening in the office or see those watery eyes appear you just know you're in the danger zone! To help give my body some extra quick nutrients I pulled out the juicer and started throwing in one-two juices per day alongside my normal meals.
Today I thought I would share a few of my new favourite juice recipes which have been getting a workout in my kitchen which I hope you will enjoy making in yours too!
