This juice reminds me of wandering along the streets of Paris. Paris is a beautiful city that has managed to keep its attraction for me even though I usually prefer a quite landscape.

Oranges contain a lot of vitamin C and the pithy part under the peal is found to contain the very valuable bioflavonoids, so put it through your juicer and make sure you don’t peal it away. It also gives the juice its creamy consistency. Nectarines are a peristaltic stimulant and may assist in morning sickness of pregnant women.

Mangoes have one big advantage; they have a great and strong taste. Mangoes can be quite expensive, but the good news is that one mango is more than enough for a good juice. There are at least twenty-two different types of mangos with the most exquisite taste. Usually we are lucky to be able to purchase one or two different variations during the stone fruit season. On your next holidays in the tropics have a look for them.
Ingredients:
* 1 mango
* 1 papaya
* 4 oranges
Machine set up:

Preparation instructions:
* juice the oranges, papaya and mango on notch 1
Preparation time: 8 min
Yields: 2 glasses
Preparation hints:
For this juice I remove the pithy part of the oranges, as it doesn’t go too well with the exotic consistency of this tropical juice. A colorful flower pierced on the rim of the glass makes you immediately relax to slow down to enjoy this juice. Choose a sweet mango for this juice. In some countries the seeds of the papaya are swallowed as they are meant to contain the greatest amount of papain. I usually swallow one or two soupspoons full of these seeds and really enjoy the taste and benefits.
Nutritional information:
Mango supports the immune system and helps to maintain the collagen in our body. It is rich in beta-carotene, vitamin C and A. Papaya is rich in vitamin C, A, carotene, flavonoids, silicon, papain and magnesium. Papain is a protein that aids in the digestion. Papaya also has anti-inflammatory properties. Oranges contain an essential oil called ‘limonene’ and they are said to have anti-carcinogenic properties.
The lychee, also spelled ‘litchee’, ‘lichi’ or ‘lichee’ grows on an evergreen tree that has been cultivated in China for thousands of years. They are mouthwatering to taste and unfortunately in most countries their price is high but affordable for special occasions.

Preparation time: 12 min
Yields: 2 glasses
Preparation hints:
This juice is very sweet and contains a lot of natural fruit sugar. It is great for afternoon tea to boost yourself for the rest of the day. You can also use longan or rambutan instead of lychee fruits. Rambutans are not as juicy but their seed is very easy to remove. Use grapes with seeds as they also contain valuable nutrients. I tend to buy organic grapes where possible as non-organic are usually heavily sprayed and require a very good washing.
Nutritional information:
Lychees are an excellent source of vitamin C and also provide small quantities of dietary fiber. White Grapes contain rare key elements such as copper, fluorine, manganese, phosphorus, calcium, tartaric acid and flavonoids. The seeds of grapes contain phosphorus and should therefore be eaten or juiced. Seedless grapes miss out on the benefits of the seeds.

Be careful with blueberry stains. Use a hard pear and juice it with the seeds and peal. Select a ripe pineapple that smells sweet on the outside. Decorate with a cranberry or a strawberry at the rim, as the color matches well.
Nutritional information:
Pears have a lot of carbohydrates, sulfur, pectin, calcium and many more vitamins. They have a cleansing effect on the skin and can act as a very light laxative. Blueberries are a good source of vitamin C and dietary fiber.

Preparation hints:
I prefer to use fleshy tomatoes, the ones you can use for cooking as well. For the best taste, use Roma tomatoes. Tomatoes in general are hard to juice. The Oscar does it incredibly well compared to other juicers, which often can’t do it at all. Be patient and juice the pulp again if you find it is too moist. It is worth the effort, as a fresh tomato juice tastes so delicious. Season with salt and pepper and serve with a black straw on ice, yum.
Nutritional information:
Tomatoes have vitamin A, B1, B2, B3, C, E, potassium, phosphorus, magnesium, iron, folic acid, calcium and sodium. They are known liver cleansers and assist in fatigue syndromes. Chives taste like a miniature onion and are a good source of iron, dietary fiber and vitamins. Eaten in such small amounts, the flavor is the most significant part of this herb. Pepper comes originally from India and is used mainly for its sharp bite, flavor and color. Sea salt in small quantities is a good source of sodium.

Nutritional information:
Cos lettuce originated from the island of Cos in Greece and is rich in natural sodium, which makes it one of the most beneficial juices for conditions affecting the adrenal glands.
