Irish Times Weekend Review:
Eating In by John McKenna
"The juice is successful because it perfectly finds a balance between sweetness and sharpness, with sufficient acidity to make sure that it is thirst quenching. It is cloudy in appearance with a sweet and florid bouquet, but the perfect pitch of the juice means it is an excellent drink with food as well as being a thirst-slaking summer drink"
