DIY Wheatgrass Ice Cubes
It goes without saying that we always opt
for the extra shot of wheatgrass when
we’re grabbing a beverage at our local
juice shop. Though tough to swallow, the
roster of health benefits could put the
menu of Yogurtland toppings to shame.
As a powerful antioxidant, that tiny shot
will help combat cancer, diabetes and the
common cold. That post-shot glow isn’t a
coincidence. Since wheatgrass is an
abundant source of vitamins and iron,
skin is suddenly much firmer and smooth.
We’ll drink to that!
As devoted members at the church of
wheatgrass, we leaped at the opportunity
to incorporate the plant into our beauty
routine. Enter: Wheatgrass on Ice.
No, we’re not talking about a fancy new cocktail. When frozen and applied topically, the combo
has a calming effect on skin. Cheeks irritated from a day in the sun? Just rub a cube on the
affected area and let Mother Nature work her magic. The antihistamines not only reduce redness
and inflammation, but they also alleviate itchiness. If only other freezer staples such as Cherry
Garcia had the same healing benefits...
Let’s begin!
Go to your local juice shop / smoothie bar and buy shots of wheatgrass juice. We picked up two 2ounces of wheatgrass juice shots.
