Although in the southern countries we are in autumn, close to entering winter, as is the case of Argentina, which is the country in which I reside; I join the initiative to share delicious and healthy refreshing and homemade recipes. I particularly cook a lot because I have a large family to feed and make rich juices is a routine at home, juice is always one of the most important elements of my table, because my children love fruits and I make an effort for making them happy and at the same time I feed them very well.

At all times, my children love the frappe, which is nothing more than crushed ice, flavored with fruits, preferably citrus. This is the recipe that I bring you next.

The important thing about developing this type of fruit smoothie is that all the substance is used in the fruits, since when blending them, their nutrients are extracted more than when they are only squeezed.
Citrus fruits such as lemon, orange and tangerine are rich in vitamin C, ideal for flu care, and even more so in these difficult times.
Honey is a powerful natural sweetener and it is not harmful to health, so I sweeten the juices with honey and I know they are totally healthy and delicious. Grapes are a powerful antioxidant and anticancer, as well as being one of the favorite fruits of my leaves, so decorating your frapee with a lemon wedge and grape is very nice, decorative and rich.
It is important to consume the citrus fruit smoothie immediately after it is made, since citrus fruits contain a verdigris in their peel that makes them bitter over the minutes. So this frappe should be consumed the moment it is made.

The process is very simple:

• We wash the fruits to be used.
• Chop the lemons with the peel into 8 pieces.
• Blend the lemons in 4 seconds with a little water.
• We sneak in with a sifter.
• We remove the peel of the mandarin and blend in 5 seconds.
• We strain the tangerine smoothie.
• We repeat the step with the oranges.
• Mix the sifted lemon, tangerine and orange smoothie.
• We take the ice and blend it in the blender with the mixture of the strained fruits.
• The texture of the ice should be ideal slush to consume with a straw.
• We add honey to taste. I used 5 heaping tablespoons of honey to sweeten all the juice. 3 liters of juice came out.
• To each glass served I added a grape as a garnish.
• This juice is really rich, nutritious, refreshing, addictive.

The results are an explosion of flavor and freshness. Lemon, Tangerine, Orange, Honey and Grape Frappe

Consuming juices like these revitalize, cheer, energize and bring us freshness when we consume them.
