juice feasting questions

[harbour]

Hello all,
I've tried a few searches but as yet have not found answers to a couple of questions.
I've got my nut milk bag and my blender at the ready. I'm about to embark on my first ever juice FEAST (*not* fast!) and need to know a couple of things:

-any suggestions for combinations of fruit & veg in the juice? (which combos are most delicious/nutritious? Also, which to avoid?

-do you ever add water to your juice before you blend it? (to help the blender out with denser veggies & fruits?)

-I'd like to add broccoli, cabbage and carrots in my juice recipes, but my current blender is rather wimpy. Any suggestions on how to effectively juice these veggies in a blender?

-do you still continue to drink 2 litres of water daily?

-I'd love to juice berries, but they are so dreadfully expensive to buy fresh. Will juicing thawed frozen berries interfere with the beneficial effects of the feast?

-can anyone please point me to any threads that will take me through the basic "juice feasting 101" for total beginners?

thanks for your help! :)

i don't use a blender... but ya, you'd have to.

-do you still continue to drink 2 litres of water daily?

of course... if not more

Thank you, Aleesha.
I'm now sipping my very first glass of homemade juice. Carrot + apple. Yum!

Following your advice to another poster, I'm keeping it simple and sticking to about 3-4 ingredients max per batch. This is the experimental phase of it. Any other suggestions as to tastey fruit & veg juice combinations would be much appreciated.

if you read through some of the longer fasting threads... there's lot of juice combo sharings in them. ;) AND heaps of info for you as well. you'll learn a lot if you read what fasters are experiencing/sharing in those threads. i know i do.
