Fresh Mosambi Juice With A Tag

Mosambi/sweet limetta/Mediterranean sweet lemon/sweet lemon/sweet lime are common names of different spices of Mosambi. In India, it is commonly called sathukudi, mousambi, mosambi, or musambi. With green to yellow (when it is fully matured) thick outer layer, a thin white layer is enlosed with soft, juicy and fleshy inner layer. The juice of mosambi is sweet rather than acidic. These fruits are excellent source of vitamin C, iron and copper.

Mosambi Juice

After morning yoga or jog or walk a fresh homemade mosambi juice cheers your energy levels. A glass of this can also make a delectable combo with your morning breakfast or else you can serve this fresh juice when kids are back home from school in the evening. To get the full benefits of any fruit juice, try to prepare it at home. As homemade juice will not have any preservatives it is always good for health. After a short morning workout a fresh juice not only levels my energy but also help me to start running for my daily chores. Drink fresh...Be fresh......
