"Of course, you can use regular oranges, too. But the color adds a remarkable appeal. You want to keep the pulp."

After reading this recipe, I thought the flavor of this drink might be a little plain. Boy, was I wrong! I loved everything about this drink, from the color to the pulp to the flavor! I used regular oranges, I kept the skin on my plum and loaded up on red grapes. Seltzer water was perfect for me while my MIL used filtered water in order to avoid the carbonation. If you don't like the pulp that this drink provides, you could easily strain it out before adding seltzer water. Thank you for a delicious and refreshing summer drink!

I joined this site back in 2007 when it was Recipezaar. I cook 90% of my own food from scratch, and have lost 40 pounds so doing. I buy most of my summertime/fall veggies from farmers' markets, don't eat much gluten or grains -- but if I am dining with friends, I do eat what I am served, except for tree nuts, commercial baked goods from supermarkets or chains (I react badly to these), and I tend to avoid sweets. Yes, you can train yourself to appreciate sweets far less! I grow some of my own food, but this is limited due to lack of full sun. I also enjoy seafood (brain food!), eggs, and some pastured meats. I'm getting more into fermented foods. Sensitivities: All the tree nuts I actually LIKE. Sigh. Fiddlehead ferns. Liquid egg product. Most commercially baked pastries and donuts and cakes.
