⚠️ A juice to be used sparingly
As I always say: nobody's perfect. While it's important to try and limit the consumption of products that come from far away, such as dragon fruit or passion fruit, it's not forbidden to indulge yourself from time to time.
I therefore recommend that you don 't consume this juice every morning, but rather see it as a pleasure you indulge in from time to time!
💡 Frequently Asked Questions
I advise you to prepare this juice at the last moment and enjoy it immediately after preparation: its taste will quickly change, as will its color.
You can replace the coconut milk with another (almond, soy, hazelnut, etc...) and use a dragon fruit of a different color.
They are quite rare (and expensive), but you can find them in world cuisine grocery stores or at certain markets.
