ISLE of Wight Festival weekend headliners Green Day and the Pet Shop Boys are the celebrity customers looking for refreshment from the frozen juice business of two Island women.
Islanders and friends, Lauren Morton, 39, of Bowcombe, and Kate England, 40, of Whippingham, are running their natural juice business, Elixir, at this year's festival.

Their juices perfect for the hot festival weather, Elixir offer the fresh juice of raw fruit and vegetables, squeezed out through a hydraulic press, then put through a 'blast freeze' process.
With no preservatives in their drinks, the women have developed a new flavour — watermelon berry tonic — with which they are offering, in collaboration with Mermaid Gin.
Green Day has requested raw cold-pressed juice for their dressing room, while the Pet shop boys ordered ginger shots.
Both acts headline on the Main Stage this weekend.
Last year, Elixir won a business award, which gave them a main arena pitch in 2023.
Running the business for three years now, the pair knew each other from their school days.
