Not feeling sexy? Try frogs in a blender!
http://www.sfgate.com/news/science/article/Peruvian-frog-juice-drinkers-laud-health-benefits-5899913.phpSuffering from stress? Not feeling sexy? High in the Andean mountains, some locals believe putting frogs in a blender is the answer....
Entire frogs are the main ingredient in a juice blend some people in Peru and Bolivia believe can cure asthma, bronchitis, sluggishness and a low sex drive. To make the mix at her food stand in Peru's capital, vendor Maria Elena Cruz grabs a frog from a small aquarium, and whacks its head on the countertop until it's dead.
Then she peels off its skin and drops the frog into a blender with carrots, the Peruvian maca root and honey.
The juice comes out light green in color. Cruz serves it in glasses to her customers.
