Recipe - Agua De Nopal

2 Cactus Paddles
1 qt Water
1 Lemon
Sugar; To Taste

JUICE IT: Many Mexicans drink nopal juice because it is believed to
control diabetes and relieve intestinal upsets.

Cut the raw paddles into pieces that will fit in your blender. Throw
in 3inchlong slices of lemon peel and sugar. Use the liquefy
function until your mixture has the consistency of apple juice. Add
ice and serve.

Serves 2.
