It might sound kinda weird, but I tell you...this green drink tastes good! It isn't a sweet drink by any means, but it has a tangy flavor that I really enjoyed. Here it is:
1 small lemon or 1/2 large lemon peeled & seeded
1 bunch spinach (just get a large handful & dump it into your blender)
3 celery sticks (cut them in half)
1 cucumber (cut them in fourths)
1 green chard leaf
1 apple seeded and cut in fourths
1 dime-sized ginger root (if you are new to ginger root: cut off a little section from your root and remove skin with a paring knife)
1-3 cups 100% no-sugar-added apple juice (I know that 1 to 3 cups is a huge difference, but people have different preferences. Just add a little at first. If it still needs more, add more.)
**1/4 cup water (optional)
Wash all fruits & vegetables before using.
In blender add:
1. Lemon, cucumber, and apple. Blend.
**You may need to add 1/4 cup water if your vegetables & fruit do not have enough water content. If they do, omit the water.
2. Add ginger root and celery. Blend.
3. Add chard leaf and spinach. Blend.
4. Add 1-3 cups of 100% no-sugar-added apple juice to taste.
DRINK IMMEDIATELY! (You'll get the most nutrients from your drink when it is fresh).
