Yup, all but one or two will go into the freezer. I have one a day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-green-juice#post-1651813 Thu, 22 May 2014 11:40:47 +0000 chopsuey 1651813@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>love it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-green-juice#post-1651748 Thu, 22 May 2014 11:20:41 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 1651748@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bluestriped bee: wow! Go you!!!!! You've inspired me!<br /> Are you going to freeze them or refrigerate them like regular juice? (I imagine they'd go fast if you have 1-2/day?) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-green-juice#post-1651733 Thu, 22 May 2014 11:15:43 +0000 MoonMoon 1651733@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love it, but have never made it at home. Wegmans was giving out samples of green juice yesterday, I don't remember everything in it but it had cucumber, wheatgrass, celery, and a lot of other stuff. Unfortunately, it wasn't pasteurized, so the lady said it wasn't recommended for nursing women or babies, so I didn't but any. But man, the sample was delicious! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-green-juice#post-1651592 Thu, 22 May 2014 10:51:58 +0000 BSB 1651592@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This thread got me to make some green smoothies. Went to Costco and got $8 bag of frozen fruit and $4 bag of spinach.</p> <p>I made 25 cups and only used half the bag of spinach. </p> [attach=147/14/n5zg2n.600x600.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-green-juice#post-1648950 Wed, 21 May 2014 10:18:49 +0000 Mommy Finger 1648950@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh no. I did the Blueprint juice cleanse twice and that green juice just did not agree with me. I find that I just do not like savory juices. I will never drink a bloody mary or tomato juice in any form. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-green-juice#post-1648923 Wed, 21 May 2014 10:06:34 +0000 MrsBrewer 1648923@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@swurlygurl: Yep! At least that's what the waiter told me! And I could definitely taste both of those bold flavors together, but they really complimented each other! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-green-juice#post-1648914 Wed, 21 May 2014 10:02:28 +0000 swurlygurl 1648914@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Bee: Oh yeah, it can handle carrots!! I put two carrots in my smoothie every morning.</p> <p>I have yet to try 100% veggie juice - I'm still adding 2 fruits to 3-4 veggies. Scared! I'd love to hear what everybody else likes though!</p> <p>@MrsBrewer: That sounds pretty good!! Cilantro AND mint mixed together?! Interesting...!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-green-juice#post-1648875 Wed, 21 May 2014 09:50:00 +0000 BSB 1648875@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup, I love green juice. I haven't been liking the store bought versions lately because some of them have a garlic or onion taste to it. </p> <p>I do have green smoothies in my freezer, I think. I made them with a bag of frozen fruit from Costco, then I add lots of spinach and a splash of juice. Then blend. So good. </p> <p>Here is the bag that I get from Costco. It's about $7 for this bag of fruit and I made about 12-15 cups of smoothies then froze them in mason jars. If I want one, I'll just thaw it the night before for a breakfast smoothie in the AM.</p> <p>Oh, my version is chunky because of my blender. It's still thin enough that I can drink it right from the mason jar. </p> <p>[attach=147/14/n5xijd.416x600.costco-fruit.jpg] </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-green-juice#post-1648819 Wed, 21 May 2014 09:34:30 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1648819@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Bee: Yes I have the omega VRT juicer because it can handle a lot of greens and it's quiet and low footprint. <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Omega-VRT350-Dual-Stage-Vertical-Single/dp/B00434JINO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1400682756&#038;sr=8-1&#038;keywords=omega+vrt+juicer" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Omega-VRT350-Dual-Stage-Vertical-Single/dp/B00434JINO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1400682756&#038;sr=8-1&#038;keywords=omega+vrt+juicer</a></p> <p>I use carrots mainly to help the juicer push the vegetables through and squeeze out the juice because it's hard. I don't really *need* it to flavor the drink. The lemon and orange covers most of the *greeny* taste. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-green-juice#post-1648801 Wed, 21 May 2014 09:29:30 +0000 MrsBrewer 1648801@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! I actually had the best green juice when I was down in Mexico! It had kiwi, kale, cucumber, cilantro, and mint! It was so light and refreshing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-green-juice#post-1648783 Wed, 21 May 2014 09:23:47 +0000 Mrs. Bee 1648783@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. High Heels: do you use a juicer?</p> <p>i am making it in my vitamix and today i strained it thru a fine mesh strainer and it came out just like juice. i actually don't like the chunky smoothie texture, and straining it took almost no time at all.</p> <p>i've never tried putting carrots in it, but since it can pulverize ice, it could probably handle carrots? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-green-juice#post-1648769 Wed, 21 May 2014 09:20:31 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1648769@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, but these days I mostly make smoothies because it's easier and cleanup is faster. </p> <p>I like it with as little fruit sugar as possible so my combo is usually lemon, orange, cucumber, carrot, and a ton of kale and spinach. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-green-juice#post-1648759 Wed, 21 May 2014 09:16:37 +0000 Mrs. Bee 1648759@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never really drank green juice -- I always did smoothies but they had something sweet like apple or banana added to them. Lately I've been getting into green juices because there is a juice place near our place. It doesn't exactly taste good.... but I don't mind the taste at all and it feels so super healthy!</p> <p>I'm going to start making some at home. Do you like green juice? What are your favorite combos? </p>
