Post Carnival Hangover? We can work it out!


Hi, every1!

Still in the mood for revelling or have you had enough of Carnival? Feeling a bit hungover, maybe? Had too many caipirinhas to drink?

If that's the case, here are some tips for you. : )

1. Forget coffee.
    Some believe otherwise but, according to nutritionists, coffee is too fatty; therefore, it may increase headache and nausea. What specialists say is important is HYDRATION.

2. Hydration
    Well, that's where my quest began. After searching the entire web and bumping into stuff that, just by the looks of it, made me feel even sicker, I came across a perfectly drinkable juice recipe. Funny thing is, my mom used to make it when I was a kid! We lived on the coast most of my childhood and traveled a lot; mom and dad have always had a thing for sun, sand and sea, which means that, as a kid, I had to tag along. : /

Anyway, that's another story. What I mean is...

3. The juice
    The juice does taste good and truly hydrates, not to mention it boosts your suntan. So, I've decided to share it with you guys and maybe spare you from the awful side effects of alcohol.

Here it goes:

 

1 carrot - small and raw
1/2 beetroot
1/2 litre orange juice - no water!
1 litre iced coconut water

All you have to do is mix everything in a blender and drink it cold. : )

Let me know how it worked for you.
Feel free to share in case you consider this useful.

Cheers!
