Favorite Juices

[GlimR]

I'm really just starting to make fresh juices part of my daily routine and I am loving it! Gearing myself up for my first juice fast and hoped you could all share your favorite juice combinations. Can't wait to learn more~:wuv

Today I made some -

pineapple/cucumber/spinach/lemon...love it!

apple/pear/ginger/lemon...my grand daughters loved this one!

You know, I just mixed up a green smoothie in the blender and I had some left over sweet peppers (yellow), so I threw one in there. It's awesome. It provides just a little hint of kick.

My smoothies and/or juices end up being whatever I have on hand so today it was:

beet greens (I was lucky enough to find these at my farmer's market on Saturday)
watermelon
an orange
one small yellow sweet pepper.

i dont like mixing , except in the case of tomato juice where i like adding alot of garlic for its medicinals / taste , plus parsley for minerals / vitamins

beyond that its just straight fruit juices like pineapple - apple - orange - etc

l only drink strong green juices.

My favourites are:

1). grass juiice
2) weed juice
3). sunflower green juice mixed with alfalfa sprouts and kelp

etc etc.

[ambidestrian]

Grass juice? Weed juice? Seriously?

There are a bunch of weeds behind my building and I was thinking about putting them in my juicer, but I decided it was probably not as good of an idea as it seemed like.

Well, my daily morning juice consists of whatever greens are growing in the garden at the moment - a mixture of kale, kohlrabi greens, beet greens, lettuces combined with an apple or two, carrots, celery, cucumber and broccoli. Sometimes I throw in a bit of ginger to spice it up. I have no problems mixing whatever I have into my juices!

As long as you know that the weeds are edible and clean and free from pesticides etc ... then go for it.

Grass juice is not the nicest tasting but it really makes my day complete, + it is a very healthy drink.

Weed juice is nice to drink. Wish l could live on weed and flower juice. Ann Wigmore was supposed to live largely on weeds towards the end of her life.

Yeah, it is so hard to source good weeds. lt's best to get to know folks so you know they aren't sprayed or go out in the wild to get them. lt's amazing when l go on my walks these days, l know many of the weeds around, but unfortunately they would be all sprayed. l'm sure they would be only sprayed with `bio-active moundup', but then again....

l know bio-active roundup is safe because frogs still thrive on lands that have been sprayed with that stuff. lt was the old `roundup' that was the killer. Still, l would like to avoid it.

Strawberries and Peaches.. :)

I'm on day 8 of a juice fast only and going crazy. I need to add more greens but can't stand the taste. Right now I'm doing mostly fruits and attempting to add in some greens. I've been told I'll get used to the taste soon and like it. I hope that's true.

Right now, my fav is, watermelon/pineapple/ginger. I also like plain honeydew melon.

[GlimR]

ShantiDass-
Amazingly enough it is something you can get used to and eventually enjoy. When fasting I try to make one big "green" juice a day w/kale, romaine, zucchini, cucumber, celery then add lots of apples (maybe 5) 1/2-1 lemon and a knob of ginger...the lemon and ginger plus apples really cuts the green taste.......adding carrots too makes it sweeter.

Lemon/ginger/apple/celery/cucumber/spinach/parsley.
