Juice Challenge Day 8

IMG_4480.JPG
Today we are trying something new! This hydrating, mineral and vitamin packed juice contains watermelon, lemon, and Jalapeño.
I have enjoyed juicing watermelon in the past. This time I wanted to spice it up with a jalapeño.
I was surprised to find out, the Jalapeño when juiced was very mild. I was hoping for a greater spicy blast.

Peppers contain capsaicin. Capsaicin properties are know for helping with weight loss, it can be found in weight loss pills and supplements.

If you have nasal congestion the capsaicin in peppers can help clear you sinuses and help you breath better.


Jalapeño contain many vitamins such as:

vitamin A, vitamin B1 (thiamine), vitamin B6, total folates, vitamin C, vitamin K, potassium, copper and manganese, and is a good source of vitamin B2 (riboflavin), vitamin B3 (niacin), iron and phosphorus.

Check out the video I made with @threebagsfull to see our new juice combo:

The watermelon made this drink super sweet. The lemon gave it a big of a tang and I could slightly taste a bit of a spice from the jalapeño. Next time I will try two jalapeño or maybe even a habanero.

Have an awesome day!
STEEM ON and Stay Healthy!!!

Thumbs up for being creative with chilies. But for the next time, I suggest that you find some "Chocolate habaneros". They will definitely give you a kick with its unique flavor and spiciness. :)

Chocolate huh?! what!? is that a type of habanero? Today I made a crazy juice with habanero and 2 other types of pepper! It was epic! :)

I can give you this link just so you can see what I'm talking about. I planted them this year an give them to some of my friends, who usualy loves spicy. But it was to spicy and special for of them.. But as they told me it's flavor is very unique.

Pepperoni & jalapeno is the best pizza!!!

That is a great combo!

i would try it.. thanks for the congestion advice too.. most of the citric juices doesnt suit me due to congestion problem during winters... hope it will work :)
