Overwhelmingly Delicious :)

I just made this juice for the first time on day 51 of my 60 day juice fast. I'm sad I didn't make this sooner! This is absolutely my favorite green juice. It's so light and refreshing. It's very stimulating to the taste buds (this is always nice when you're on a long juice fast. Sometimes it's nice to really stimulate our little taste buds!)


Yields: 48oz
-1 XL green apple
-1 lemonade apple
-1 pink lady apple
-1 lemon (I peeled it this time)
-1-2 inches of ginger
-1 XL juicy peach (use 2 if they are small)
-1 bunch of spinach
-1/2 to 2/3 of a cucumber
-3 large celery sticks

Juice it all up and pour over ice :)

Notes: I get all of my produce from Central Market. They have a huge variety of apples! I like to test them all out! I couldn't resist their huge juicy peaches this week! 

You can always make simple substitutions if you don't like something.
-if you don't like lemons opt for a lime 
-Not big on ginger? You can leave it out
-If you don't have spinach on hand, use any type of dark leafy green

Remember that you don't have to stick to any one recipe! Change it up and use ingredients that are tasty to you. It'll help you stay on track if you are juicing flavors that appeal to you.

1 more thing; remember this juice has a ton of fruits in it! Make sure this isn't you're only juice. We need an 80%-20% veggie to fruit ratio.
