Beet Vegetable Juice Cocktail

 

1 large sweet apple

2 large carrots

1 cup fresh beet

1/2 cup fresh beet greens, optional

1 broccoli spear, optional

2 sprigs parsley

1/4 cup onion

1 garlic clove

1/8 to 1/4 tsp. Stevia, white extract - Sweetner from Japan. I use Sweet n low.

probably makes it taste different than it should, but its all I had

1/2 tsp. allspice, ground

2 TB flax seed

1 to 1-1/2 cups Ice

1 to 1-1/2 cups water

 

Wash and clean the vegetables. Place one half of the water and all the other

ingredients in a high speed blender (Vita-Mix type).

 

Cover and run at high speed, tamping as required to make sure that all the

ingredients are thoroughly blended and smooth.

 

While the mixer is still running, retract the tamper and rinse it into the

blender with the remaining water. Continue running at high speed for another

minute and it is ready to serve.

 

Stop the blender and pour into glasses, with a straw and a piece of parsley

garnish. The consistency can be adjusted by changing the amount of water and

ice.

 

Stevia is a sweetener and should be adjusted to taste. The flax seed adds

nutritional components such as essential fatty acids and helps to keep the juice

from separating
