Want a boost the health of your skin? Want to boost your energy? Well, this juice (adapted from The Big Book of Juices and Smoothies) will do both with two simple ingredients! Blueberries and Peaches!! Two of my favorite fruits combined into one yummy juice – of course, you could always opt for a nectarine in place of the peach if you’re not a peach fan…and still get all the goods for your energy level and skin appeal. This juice also helps with immunity and it gets a 1-star for digestion (on a scale of 5-star for skin and immunity). It’s also chock full of nutrients: beta-carotene, biotin, folic acid, vitamins B1, B2, B3, B6, C and E, calcium, chromium, iron, magnesium, manganese, phosphorous, potassium, sodium, and sulphur. Whew…that was a mouthful! You could also play around with different berries, such as straw or rasp! Even a blackberry would be good blended in. If you want a thicker, smoothie appeal – toss in a banana (frozen or room temp)! 
The recipe makes one 8oz drink, so feel free to double!
Ingredients:
1 peach or nectarine, pitted and chopped
1.5 (women-sized) handfuls of blueberries (or 1 man-sized)
Directions:
Blend together in a blender…strain if blueberry skins bother you, or not, whatever.
Happy Juicing!

Ya know…I make Matt a smoothie every day for breakfast and I never think to make MYSELF one. How terrible is that! Of course Matt’s are more complicated than this one…but I do like the simplicity. All the more reason to treat myself dammit! Thanks for this Sara…it alerted me to my mistreatment of myself lol.
Good to know I can at least make someone aware of mistreatment and injustice..even if it’s already a vegan, and it’s the mistreatment of oneself – which often times ends up inflicting the most damage (because of the domino- or trickle-down-effect)! It’s like the oxygen mask…on a plane…
What a great way to start the day. I should really consider making a fresh juice or smoothie in the morning. I usually have coffee and, even though it’s decaf, I don’t always feel that great about drinking it. Peaches and blueberries would do my body much better!

We put blueberries and peaches on our cereal all the time. This sounds like a great alternative. Thanks
