It was okay. Not the worst and not the best. I think a little strong on the ginger root, lemon and lime. It has loads of nutrition in it though.

Personally, I like juicing better. I've never liked the texture of smoothies. That would make a good juice combo.

Since you have a vitamix, I have to ask, why peel the ginger, or juice the lime/lemon? I'm sure you can toss them all in there and it will have more nutrition, same taste and less work.

I don't actually juice the lime/lemon as i have a squeeze tool that i use to get the juice out. I have just always peeled the ginger for some reason. Originally Posted by Dirkg

do you use a whole cucumber? Mine had a strong bitter taste. Pretty sure it was either the lemon, lime or ginger. I may try it without the ginger next time and see what it taste like. Originally Posted by Traceyraw

I agree but I think it's the seeds in particular that I don't like the juice of.

I've been juicing Dr. Oz's drink, is it meant to be blended?

made this again last night and it was much better! I only used 1 apple and 2 celery sticks instead of 3. Also only used 1/2 lime. Originally Posted by dmb2002man
