Hey everyone, I've been struggling to find a really good green drink recipe. Lately I've been using my vitamix instead of my juicer so that I can keep all the nutrients and fiber in my drink. It makes for a thinker drink but I don't mind. My current recipe is 2 handfuls of spinach, a little lime juice, cranberry juice and some stevia.
Does anyone have a good green drink recipe? I would also like to know everyone's opinions on juicing or using the vitamix for these drinks.
Thanks!:)
