  • 175g (6oz) raspberries

  • 2 teaspoons runny honey or to taste

Method:

  1. Cut the red cabbage and beetroot into pieces that will fit in your juicer shoot then press through an electric juicer.
  2. Puree the raspberries and blueberries with a little of the red cabbage and beetroot juice in a liquidiser until smooth then add the remaining juice and sweeten to taste with honey.
  3. Pour into two glasses and serve immediately or pour into a sports drinks container, seal well and take to the gym for a post workout energy boost.

Cook's tip: If you don't have a juicer then puree the raspberries and blueberries with 300ml (1/2 pint) bought cranberry and raspberry juice or pomegranate juice.
