In reply to Roe. Can you lady's help me, I just want to be sure what type of red pepper everyone is using? Red Pepper is it>? a Bell or other type? I have used bell in my smoothies and even the slightest piece takes over, in fact I ended up with bags of them frozen in the garage. I made sure to take the seeds and all out each time, I love them but OH WOW lol Thank you for the help & sharing Ideas !

I am on day two of my 3 day detox. This morning I tried the Grapefruit Vege Lime Juice. I didn’t pucker (guess my grapefruit wasn’t all that sweet) but I could taste the red pepper – overwhelmingly. I contribute that though to the fact I have my own garden. So moments before the pepper was washed, cut and put in the blender it was still enjoying life on the vine outside!! To help counteract the red pepper taste (I saw someone else mentioned that too) I added a cup of green grapes. Wasn’t sure it would work, but let me tell you.. I have a fabulous drink!! Thank you for sharing your recipes!

Great recipe, grapefruits still have sugar, good only using 1 of them.

In reply to Janelle. I think it might have had to do with how sweet your grapefruit is. Did you try adding stevia or another sweetener?

I was really excited to try this, but it really didn’t pan out for me. All I could taste was the celery and the red pepper, which ended up kind-of gross. I ended up pouring the whole thing out, unfortunately. My husband loooooves grapefruit, and I had another, so I just threw that in the juicer with the other half of the lime. Half an hour later, my tongue is still burning from the pucker, but he thought it was great! Lol.

In reply to Edith. Yes I tried it this morning as I was out of grapefruit and I liked it but I do like it with grapefruit better.

Made this in my juicer before work. Then put it in the freezer for about 1-1/2 hours. It was fabulous! Will definitely make this one again. Thank you.

In reply to Chris. Really? Might depend on how ripe your grapefruit is, mine was not tart at all.

I have a question. As I have reactive low blood sugar,I can’t drink much juice.Is there something I can add to this,like whey protein and ground flax seed to give it a slower absorption rate? I eat grapefruit as the last thing when I have my breakfast after I have eaten my protein and whole grain.That is the only way I can eat my fruit, or my blood sugar goes out of wack.
Thanks
Joan
