Notes

  • *Instead of cutting peel from the citrus you can just squeeze it's juice in after juicing the other ingredients.
  • You can also substitute leafy greens here with others such as green chard, collard greens, wheatgrass, or parsley.
  • Optionally try adding nutritious boosters such as green tea, spurlina, barely grass powder, or chlorella powder.
  • And try sweetening with other fruits such as pineapple, pear or a navel orange in place of apple or grapes.
  • For an acidic replacement for lemon or lime try 1/4 of a grapefruit.
