Goji Berry Slushy is YUMMY!

I was looking back today through some of Jeni’s previous blogs and realized she had just posted this month a whole list of great Goji recipes. The first one was the “Pure and Simple Goji Fruit Juice.” This recipe was created by Eric Rivkin, Living Foods Health Chef, Minneapolis and Costa Rica. His website is under construction right now but you will soon find him at www.VivaLaRaw.org

Wow! What a great start for the morning, a healthy dessert or treat!

I didn’t have all the berries in the list, but I did have a fresh cantaloupe.

I used

½ whole cantaloupe - frozen

½ c frozen blueberries

½ c frozen raspberries

½ c re-hydrated Goji Berries

To re-hydrate any dried berries, just pour about ½ cup of hot water on them and let sit for a few minutes. If you don’t have time to re-hydrate, just use about two ounces of the 100% Pure Goji Juice.

I popped all of this in my blender with a bit of filtered water and served in some nice wine glasses. If you like it a bit tart, add a squeeze of lemon, if you want it sweeter, add a drop or two of stevia.
