I was THAT mom that said no juice Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

But DS got dehydrated and constipated (sorry tmi) and it was a great help for him to have the diluted 100% pure apple juice...so that got me thinking....

if he's drinking pure apple juice what's the difference between that and eating an apple? So maybe I shouldn't withhold the juice from him...which made me think about making it myself (and getting creative with flavors) with a juicer.

But maybe it's not worth all that work? Wanted to get some feedback...

Do you make your own juice?
What juicer do you use?
Any fun concoctions to share?

or

In your opinion, would buying be better? Any recommendations on the juice you use?

I don't see anything wrong with kids drinking (diluted) juice, but I do make my kids fruit shakes that they love too. I use my hand blender or for large quantities, I use my blender.

I usually just buy 100% apple juice.

I have a Breville Juice Fountain Plus that I bought specifically for the kids. I make them fresh juice everyday and they LOOOOOOOOOOVE it. I normally just mix a bunch of fruits and stick a few veggies (carrots, celery, tomatos) in there too.
My kids favorite concotion so far is...
Apple, Orange, Strawberry, Peach, Pear, Carrot, Celery and Tomato juice.
