NOTES

Why blend instead of juice?
Blending is done in a blender. Juicing is done is a juicer. Blended drinks contain fiber and pulp. Juices contain little fiber and pulp.

First of all, juicing is great when someone is ill and requires high nutrition with the least digestion.

But, for those who are fairly healthy, blending is best. Why? Because:

1. Blended drinks contain valuable fiber and pulp.
2. Blended drinks are ECONOMICAL. The peelings and pulp contain valuable nutrition.
3. Blended drinks help satiate the appetite. You feel fuller and more satisfied.

My drink didn’t come out as green as the picture. It was barely edible, too. I added a teaspoon of Splenda and a dash of lime juice to make it go down a little easier. I used kale greens as my leafy green, so maybe this has something to do with it.

Dear K-love,

Here are some tricks on how to make a perfect drink:

1. What creates the beautiful green color is SPINACH and the dark, dark part of the Romaine. Spinach in particular really imparts a deep green color. If we can, we use organic spinach grown in soil which we have found to be particularly rich, meaty, mild and dark dark green. Use a full handful. : )

2. Kale is very strong and not very good tasting. Therefore, just a little – perhaps only one leaf to start. Kale does not usually create a rich, green color.

3. Apples: The ripeness and sweetness of the fruit is crucial – for apples, we use sweet fujis, then galas or even sweet delicious. Organic sweet fuji apples are the best for taste. If the apples are small, use 1 and a half.

4. Bananas: Add a half or whole ripe banana that is just slightly spotty. That’s the perfect time without the too ripe “overtaste.” But some people like more brown spots for extra sweetness. Bananas perform miracles!

5. If there is a Trader Joes near by, try the frozen mangoes. The richer, deeper yellow color, the better. Add 1/2 cup of frozen mangoes. Yummy and healthy, too!

6. Brassica greens like kale and collards have a strong, pungent and sometimes bitter taste. They do not do well in a blender drink without plenty of fruit.

7. You can sweeten with extra banana or medjool DATES. One medjool date does wonders. We recommend avoiding splenda due to health issues that we have heard from experts. With our new updated recipe, you should have a delicious drink without needing added sweetness. : )

We revised the recipe for better taste. Our original recipe had been made with ripe organic fruit and mild greens. But, not everyone will be able to or can find such organic ingredients.
