Juice for my boo

I have been trying to help my boo decrease his soda intake by giving him juice. I know that it still isn't the best option BUT it's a start. This juice is inspired a juice blend my fams came up with not too long ago. It's a combination mango green tea (from fresh and easy), blueberry and pomegranate juice, chopped up strawberries and blueberries, and water to dilute the juice. I like it a lot. Not too sweet and a little tart. Yummy!
