8 Favorite Juices for Summertime

During summer, take advantage of the delicious fruits and vegetables that are in season, such as strawberries and tomatoes! Along with being seasonal and tasty, this produce is also full of nutritional benefits. Take red beets, which are loaded up with electrolytes. Or, maybe you love a bell pepper, which is chock-full of heart-healthy potassium.
