View Full Version : Does juicing greens taste better than vita-mixing?

We have been making smoothies in our vitamix but the greens (spinach, kale) taste SOOOOOOO bitter and yucky. We can hardly put in any compared to the amount of fruit. Even three bananas didn't cover up the taste of a tiny clump of spinach today.

So, I'm wondering if it might be the pulp (or hoping rather). We also have a juicer. Would it taste better (and still get lots of nutrients) if we juiced the greens before making the smoothie?

Yes, definately for me! I juice all the greens that I don't like to eat raw, or the ones that are too fibrous and tough for smoothies--I prefer the tender greens for smoothies. Try it juiced!
