My current favorite-

1 stalk/head collard greens
1 inch ginger root
1/2 organic lemon (with peel)
1 apple

Juice all in juicer and drink. This is a real wake up drink!!

[Elizabeth]

Wow..LivingRawgirl..that sounds like it would wake you up!!! I am so interested in hearing all of the combos. that people come up with.. I wonder if they can be correlated with specific phases of detox or conditions..as we are all moved to try to create balance through our choices and affinities...

I just made this and I like it...

3 or 4 large carrots
1/2-1 red pepper
2-4 green onions
small piece of lime
2 plum tomatoes

I juiced them and it tastes like a yummy soup. i thought of adding salt and spices, like cumin, but thought I would not, since I am doing this to juice fast.... maybe next time I will add a little garlic in place of some of the onion....

I have a book called Juicing for Life. It has specific juices to drink to cure different ailments based on the vitamins and minerals in the ingredients. Pretty interesting.

Here is the juice I usually drink:

greens - either beet or kale or cilantro...whatever I have
1 beet
1 apple
2-3 stalks celery
a little ginger

[RawVee]

Tonya Zavasta got me hooked on collard greens and mango. Very simple, and tastes like heaven.

[portiz]

1 starfruit
2-3 fuji apples
1-2 celery stalks
1/2 cucumber
2-3 carrots
1-2 key limes

You can do it without the starfruit, but I believe it adds a distinctive flavor to the juice.

HAPPY JUICING!!!

[Strawberry Pie Face]

I have read about drinking one juice for this and one juice for that, and it seems I need a juice for everything

So, instead of drinking 14 different juices, I just threw everything I had in the fridge into my Green Star and hoped for the best

bunch of cilantro (greens?)
piece of ginger (detox?)
1 whole meyer lemon (detox? good for liver?)
1 grapefruit (bye-bye cellulite? )
1 orange (tastes yummy)
4 carrots (better eyesight?, and I need a tan )
3 stalks celery (minerals, detox, ?)
1 beet (?)
1 cucumber (for glowing skin, one day)

It's about 24 oz of the brightest red, everything good for ya morning drink!

Anyone care to add ingredients to my "everything drink" please comment!

How do collards taste juiced??? Stong? Bitter? Yummy?

Thanks!

[jnoelj]

My favorite (and I don't really do a whole lot of others because this is so yummy!), 1 bunch of spinach or kale
1 cucumber
1 meyer lemon
2 apples
1 inch ginger root
It tastes like lemonade...

[cassidy]

My favorite is

Green Lemonade
Greens (kale, spinach, celery, romaine... whatever I have on hand)
1/2 lemon
ginger
2 apples

I just had pinnapple and celery last night ... that was really yummy

I love mango juice! It's so creamy

And fresh OJ and Apple Juice (favorite combo: 2 fujis and 1 granny smith).

Sometimes I find if I mix too many veg juices together, it upsets my tummy, so now I don't generally mix more than 3.

Yesterday; 1/2 cucumber
2 sticks celery
2 green apples
(1" root ginger)

The other day someone made me a carrot and beet juice - tasty!!

Fat Melt Down Juice

2 apples
2 pears
1 slice ginger Juice All

[crawmommy]

This is a variation of LivingRawGirl juice recipe-
1/2 bunch of collards
1 pomegranate
1/2 grapefruit
1 apple

It is great, doesn't taste too collard like. Yes, this is a wake up juice.

[ella]

i'm going to have to try some of these.

my last cup of juice-

3 lacinato kale leaves
1 apple
2 honey tangerines

[Magus]

Hi!

1 complete (!) organic Lemon (not peeled)

bunch of peppermint
bunch of parsley
piece of ginger

Mix it with
1/2 Avocado
1 banana

1 tablesp. honey

Finished and drink.

I love the taste of lemon and peppermint. Tomorrow I'll try ice cream with lemon and peppermint and ???

So I assume then that it is perfectly fine to mix your fruit and veggie juices...I'm glad you posted this because I'm starting my very first juice feast tomorrow, I just got my juicer in the mail today. The first thing I did was make a pear juice. YUM! Is it better if I don't mix my juices at first while I detox? Will it help me to detox faster or do you think I'm good either way?
