This fantastic book includes a superb collection of 160 recipes, from healthy fruit and vegetable juices to creamy, indulgent smoothies and delicious boozy blends for grown-up parties.

An informative section on therapeutic juicing reveals how common complaints might even be relieved by certain nutritious blends.

For special occasions treat yourself to a dessert drink like Blueberry Meringue Crumble or get your party off to a good start with a zesty Lime Mojito. Whatever the occasion, this practical and immensely usable book has just the recipe.
