pass w/ rice Germ i made this with a jar of mango blood orange juice, witch hazel, and white cardamom powder, this is so delicious, nutritious, and faithful to the recipe. if you change a thing, or two, or three, or four, or five, this is the recipe for you. i might try adding lemon juice too, if it makes it less vinegar-y. but that's just my personal preference.
