# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It takes less time than brewing coffee but feels like a gift you gave yourself.
  • The tartness wakes you up without any caffeine, just pure fruit and a little sunshine in a glass.
02 -
  • Frozen berries work perfectly and sometimes blend smoother than fresh, so dont wait for berry season to make this.
  • If you skip straining, the juice will be thicker and more filling, almost like a smoothie but still drinkable.
03 -
  • Let frozen berries sit at room temperature for five minutes before blending, it saves wear on your blender and makes everything smoother faster.
  • If the juice tastes too sharp, add another orange segment or a splash more honey, tartness is subjective and easy to adjust.
