Lou Corona Drink

By: Silly Sigh Ben

Place in Blender...

1 inch Fresh GINGER...only peel off bad spots (work up to advanced version
slowly...which is 5 to 6 inches)
2 LEMONS (peel the yellow part off and cut in half)
3 or more Sweet APPLES (peel skin...only if it is not organic and cut into
wedges...use the core too)
1/8 tsp *90,000 H.U. (Heat Units) of CAYENNE PEPPER (work up slowly to the
advanced version of 1 Tablespoon)
2 or more cups of PURIFIED WATER (add what is needed to make at least 1 1/2
quarts of the finished product)

Blend the above ingredients until everything is processed...don't
over-blend...or you will lose nutrients.

Strain with a large strainer or juice bag...and drink the liquid. The reason
for getting rid of the fiber is so the "Blast" can go right into the body and
start cleansing. If you are worried about "wasting" the fiber...you may use it
to make spicy fruit leather.

* The spice rack variety of CAYENNE PEPPER is only about 20,000 to 40,000 H.U.
You can start with that...if you already have it in your cupboard. But, when it
is time to purchase more...the 90.000 H.U. is recommended (available at any
decent health food or herb store...I try to buy it in bulk). Recently, I have
been able to buy 180,000 H.U. at a local herb store. I only put 1 tsp in when
using it. I was able to work up to the tablespoon...but, have decided that it
is not necessary (it cost more and after all it is a lot more potent!). When I
use fresh hot peppers (any variety will do) I prefer the red chili pepper or
once in a while (when I am in an adventurous mood)...I will use Habaneros. They
are really HOT!

If you are using a Juice Machine...

Run through the juicer...

GINGER
LEMONS
APPLES

Then add the WATER and CAYENNE PEPPER.

If you want to use fresh hot peppers...run them through the juicer first. Then
juice the other ingredients.

When in season, I substitute WATERMELON or GRAPES for the APPLES. If I use the
WATERMELON, I do not add any water. If I use GRAPES, then I cut down on the
water. My friend Lindsey loves to use GRAPEFRUIT instead of APPLES. I have also
used...on a few occasions...ORANGES in place of the APPLES and half the LEMONS.

I try to make and drink the "Blast" every morning. When a day or two goes by
without it, I notice a major difference in the way I feel (less energy and not
as "in tune")...big time! Sometimes I drink the whole thing. But, most of the
time our family shares one or two batches. If I have been exposed to an
illness that is "going around" or I feel that a cold or flu is "trying to get
me" (like a scratchy throat, sneezing a lot or burning sensation in my nose)...I
drink it all day and nothing else except lots of purified water. Then I don't
get sick.
