Juice Recipe: Granny Smith apple, lemon and red bell pepper
Driving down the highway, Radio playing loud. Leaving old behind. Looking forward new adventures, moving towards a new land.
Ready for some torque. That sweet V8 (not your car’s engine, but that juice you made earlier) is looking pretty good about now.
You reach for the cooler and rummage through the snacks. A quick shake, juice still cold. Sip.
“I will remember this moment” you think as you drink it all, feeling pretty good, knowing all will be just fine.
An otherwise vegetable mix it is improved by the sweet tones of the apple and elevated by the unique taste of red bell pepper juice.
By selecting a tar, green apple like Granny Smith, we avoid an aggressive infusion of sweetness and instead the juice becomes rounded, refine and invigorating.
Very light green and chalky color with fluid texture.
Keeps well refrigerated; drink as a refreshment or snack.

Good juice but not my favorite
I found it too strong for me. I like more mellow green flavors are better but it is my personal taste. Exact yield too, very nice.
