Puree Juice Bar


On Saturday afternoon my family and I took a walk to try out puree juice bar. My mum and I have been there a few times and we wanted to introduce it to my dad and younger brother. This was my third time visiting the juice bar and it has never disappointed me. I LOVE it!! The juices are so yummy and you would never believe that they are super healthy for you. And I mean who doesn't love that??

 When you walk into the bar you see this giant fridge full of fresh juices and other vegan and gluten free food. I haven't actually tried any of the food options but they all look so yummy. I especially want to try their chia pudding and zucchini noodle salad. Hopefully next time I will!

So here is the menu for the fresh handmade shakes. There is just so much variety, which is what I personally really love! There are 14 shakes of the menu but you can customize each one. I love that next to each shake there are little dots of color that tell you the health benefits of each drink. For example hydration, digestion, protein, and immunity just to name a few. 


For the three times I have been the juice bar I have chosen a different shake each time. 

  • The first time I chose the Mango Tango (mango, banana, spinach, coconut water, almond mylk, and cayenne pepper), which is so yummy. My favorite thing about it is that it is green so it makes me feel super healthy. 
  • My second time there I chose the Berry Banana (almond mylk, banana, and seasonal berries) and this was also so delicious. It is such a pretty vibrant color due to the berries!
  • My third time (today!) I was very tempted to have another berry banana but decided to try another shake. So I choose the Banana Butter Cup (almond mylk, banana, cinnamon, and cocoa nibs) and let me tell you it tastes just like a banana chocolate milkshake! You would not believe that neither dairy nor cocoa was used in this. For all chocolate lovers like myself I would definitely recommend this drink. 



My mum chose the Mango Tango and she loved it!! 



My banana butter cup! I am craving one of these now, so much yumminess! 


 My dad chose the Berry Banana and let me tell you my dad is not a healthy food lover he would much rather have a beer, but he loved this. Despite my win in convincing my dad to try these healthy shakes I could not convince my younger brother. Instead he opted to go to the next-door smoothie king. Let me tell you before becoming a vegan and being healthy I used to love smoothie king especially a lemon twist. So I thought that once entering the store I would be tempted to try his smoothie....but I wasn't!! This was due to the fact that once entering the store I noticed that they did not use any fresh produce and that my shake was a lot more healthy and yummy.
Overall I love this juice bar and I think that is may become a family outing on a Saturday to head up here and have a shake!
