Apples and apple juice have a low glycaemic index (GI) which means they keep you feeling full for longer. To make the most of your apple juice, stir the extracted fruit fibre back into the juice. A 200g apple has 4g dietary fibre, as much as three slices of mixed grain bread.
To make a change from straight apple juice, try mixing it with other fruits and vegetables. For instance, these recipes make two glasses each:
Fruit Frappé: Juice four apples. Then blend one cup of peeled and seeded pawpaw, one peeled banana, and one cup of pineapple chunks (fresh or canned). When smooth, add the apple juice and one cup of ice. Blend again, and serve.
Apple, Carrot & Beetroot Frappé: Juice six large carrots, one large peeled and trimmed beetroot, and two apples. Then blend two cups of ice, add the vegetable juice and blend for a few seconds more. Season to taste with Tabasco and nutmeg and serve frappé immediately.
