Pro tips
-
If you’re not keen on the seedy texture, just filter out the passion fruit seeds with a sieve.
-
Ashwagandha root liquid extract works the best for mixing into juices. We like this liquid extract. If all you have is a powder, whisk it into the juice until the clumps disappear. Powders work best in smoothies.
