We enjoy watching the extreme skateboard competitions on TV.  ‘A’ and ‘R’ are both really into riding their Razor scooters, and ‘A’ has aspirations of some day riding a skateboard like the big kids.<\/p>\n

One night while watching one of the competitions, ‘A’ noticed something.  Our conversation went like this:<\/p>\n

A: (realizing that competitors will often drink something after their performance; not realizing that it is probably product placement…) "Mom and Dad, see how the guys always drink something after they are on their skateboard?  I want to drink what they are drinking."<\/p>\n

Us: "The beverage contains quite a bit of caffeine.  When you are 17, you can decide whether you want to drink something like that or not."<\/p>\n

A: "Look, that guy has the same sticker on his helmet as on the drink.  My helmet has ‘Mongoose’ on it, so I want a Mongoose drink…I want Mongoose juice."<\/p>\n

Us:  "Ummm, OK, well, what is in Mongoose juice?"<\/p>\n

A: "Let’s see…(thinking)…grape juice, orange juice, apple juice, pear juice, and mango juice.  That’s ‘Mongoose juice."<\/p>\n

That sounds so good, we decided to break in our new juicer and went to the store and bought a bunch of fresh fruit to juice.  <\/p>\n

It was delicious!

\n‘R’ wanted to get in on the action too, and make "Blue Juice".  His recipe includes: Blueberries, Apples, Oranges, Lemon, and Strawberries.   OK, so it did not turn out blue, but it still tasted great!
