Default homemade fruit drinks

I came home after being away for 3 days and I found a husband who hadn't been sleeping for like a week. He was positively insomnia driven and looking pale and tired. I asked him to get off the Diet Coke (big thing for him). Since I cannot make homemade diet coke here is what I came up with.
I take frozen fruit or fresh fruit (add ice to it) and throw it in the blender with some water and stevia. This has saved his life. 3 days later he is sleeping again. Of course
My favorites so far:

1 cup frozen raspberries
1/2 cup frozen strawberries
1 1/2 cups water
2 packets stevia

blend and enjoy

1 lemon (peeled a cut)
1 orange (peeled and cut)
1 glass of water
5-6 cubes of ice
mint
2 packets stevia

blend and enjoy again

I bet you mango/pineapple and grapefruit/orange will be great, too

I also keep the pulp in there for the fiber, + it gives it a nice texture

p.s. Add Greens+ at your own risk!

The lemon - orange sounds great. Sounds like it might cure a cold!

This is becoming the house craze, just tried orange-cranberry...it turned out dense and sweet thanks to the stevia. It feels wrong it's so much like juice
