Pineapple and raspberry are both rather sour fruits with an underlying sweetness. This drink turns out to be a pleasant surprise in taste and color!

A cleansing and alkalizing juice or ‘slush’ as I like to call it

Ingredients:

• 12 ice cubes
• ½ pineapple
• ½ cup raspberries

Machine set up:

• First place the Mincing Strainer into the drum and onto the screw. Attach the drum cap onto the end of the drum by turning it counter clockwise until you feel it sits firmly. Don’t attach any Nozzle onto the drum cap.
• Place a bowl under the Pulp Discharge Outlet in order to catch the ice powder.
• Always be sure to start the machine before you enter anything into the Guide and keep the machine running until finished.
• Then place the Juicing Strainer into the drum and onto the screw. Attach the drum cap onto the end of the drum by turning it counter clockwise until you feel it sits firmly. Then screw the Juicing Nozzle onto the drum cap turning it counter clockwise onto notch 2.
• You are now ready to make the juice needed.

Preparation instructions:

• Run the ice cubes through the Mincing Function
• Juice the pineapple and the raspberries with the Juicing Strainer
• Fill the ‘ice snow’ into 2 glasses
• Pour the juice on top
• Serve immediately

Preparation time: 8 min

Yields: 2 glasses

Preparation hints:

Peal the pineapple but don’t remove the hard middle bit as it can be easily juiced. When juicing, alternate between the two fruits and keep some pineapple to juice last to expel all the raspberries. Use a sieve to strain the juice. For color variation, make the pineapple juice and pour it into the glass and then pour the red raspberry juice on top. It looks incredible.

The Power Mill Blender will break the cellulose-wall in whole foods, which means vital nutrients and enzymes are released when blended.

The Power Mill Blender is able to pulverize the skins, seeds and peels of fruit & vegies, which increases their bioavailability so your body benefits from the WHOLE nutrient!

All you need:

1/2 head of Cauliflower

1/2 cup of Raw Cashew Nuts

2 cups of Water

Pinch of Salt

1/8 clove of garlic

(The Power Mill Blender excentuates the flavour in food like garlic & salt, so only a little is needed, if not using the Power Mill, feel free to add to taste.)

Blend for approx. 5 minutes or until warm. Friction is caused by the Precsion-Designed Blades, which conducts heat.

You will notice when the lid is removed, steam will rise from the soup!

Enjoy on these cold wintery nights!

Great for the kids, they won’t even know they are getting their daily dose of fruit!

Spread the mixture onto a solid sheet using a spatula, making sure the mixture stands only a few millimeters tall – the thicker the cracker, the harder to eat, the longer to dry and the shorter the shelf life.

Score the size of the crackers you’d like with a knife or spatula before dehydrating.

Dry at 72 degrees celcius for 2 hours and then 57 – 60  degrees celcius overnight.

When the fruit leather has dried, it will be a bit shiny and non-sticky to touch. Allow it to cool and peel it from the tray.
