Me here. Still not orange.
In fact, I've given up the Carrot Zinger Orangification Journey—my quest to turn myself orange through ingesting massive quantities of Fresh Blends' Carrot Zingers. At my peak intake—almost 100 ounces of carrot-beet-ginger-lemon juice a week—I wasn't even the slightest bit peach-toned.
Over the past few weeks of the CZOJ, I've become addicted to my morning stops at the Belmont store. I just can't drink any more carrots. So it's time for a new drink. Something less orange. Less carroty. Something more, I don't know....beety!
In the spirit of the Beet Beat—Bites' salute to summer's ruby-red diversity of beets—Fresh Blends owner Tony Reall has offered to host a contest for us.
Whoever comes up with the best beet-based juice recipe—as determined by Tony and the Fresh Blends team—will win a free regular-size juice or smoothie for a week. So have at it, Biters. Submit your best beet blends and we'll have Tony and the gang, you know, give 'em a whirl.
We'll announce a winner on Monday, July 20.
