Fix and swap

Didn't come out right? Fix it.

  • Too sweet

    Add more cucumber or a squeeze of lime to pull the bottle back toward crisp.

  • Too sharp

    Add a few cucumber pieces or a small carrot wedge to soften the edge.

  • No jicama?

    Use cucumber. Keeps yield, but shifts the base flavor.

  • No carrot?

    Use sweet potato. Keeps sweetness, but changes body and aroma.
