    Default Grapefruit juice

    Does grapefruit juice really help burn body fat! If so I would like to find a way I can enjoy it! It's a little too bitter for me! I like my juice sweet! Does anyone know what kind of fruit I can juice to mix with it, to make it taste better to me? Thanks! Have a fruitful day!

    Does anyone know how I can make grapefruit juice taste good to me! I hear it's suppose to help burn body fat! I like my juice to be sweet and grapefruit juice tastes a little bitter to me! Would anyone know what other fruits I could juice to sweeten it up and make it taste better to me? Thanks, have a fruitful day!

    Pineapple!

    Personally, I love very tart grapefruit juice.....try buying the red kind. They tend to be sweeter. We had a really sweet red grapefruit tree at my house in Florida. So juicy and sweet....aaaahhhh.

    Anyway, try the red kind mixed with some pineapple. That should do it.

    You can always add a squirt of stevia or, melt some agave or honey if you wish. Red is sweeter than the yellow I've found also.

    Pineapples can be easy to peel. You'll need a larger knife than a paring one.

    Cut off top and bottom
    Stand the fruit on its now flat bottom
    Take a knife and slice off the outer layer going from top to bottom

    Easy peasy! (and so worth it!)

    Do you peel your citrus? Are you blending - or juicing? When I'm juicing with my citrus juicer, I simply cut the citrus in half and juice...

    ditto.

    Also, I don't tend to mix citrus with anything other than other citrus but that may just be me!
