Ingredients
7 | strawberries | |
2 | Ginger | Pieces |
1 | Mango | |
1 | Yellow Beet | |
1 | Lemon | |
1 | Cucumber | Mine came from the tree outside it’s a hybrid of the 3 cut in half and remove peel and pips. |
5 | Water | Cups of filtered water |
6 | Ice | Coconut or Water cubes |
These are my suggestions. I am currently using the Red one on the left (Vitamix 5200)
Directions
Add all the pre-washed ingredients to the blender with the juice of lemon, the filtered water, and ice ( I made ice cubes from some coconut water.) Coconut helps to balance ph levels and keep connective tissues hydrated and strong, but you can use regular ice cubes too.
Blend well ( about 2 minutes ), pour, and enjoy.
