Ingredients
- 2 medium beets, peeled and chopped
- 1 medium nopal (prickly pear cactus pad), cleaned and diced
- Juice of 2 limes
- 1 handful fresh parsley
- 2 cups cold water
- Ice cubes (optional)
Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients
Wash all produce thoroughly.
Peel and chop the beets into small pieces.
Remove any remaining spines from the nopal, rinse well, and dice it.
Rinse the parsley and squeeze the fresh lime juice.
Step 2: Blend
Add the beets, nopal, parsley, lime juice, and water to a blender.
Blend for 1–2 minutes until smooth.
