Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups Spinach chard +
  • 4 sprigs Mint - 5
  • 2 sprigs Celery leaves
  • 1 Carrot medium
  • 1/4 Beet large
  • 1 Orange small
  • 1 Ice cube
  • pinch Rock salt (optional) a

Instructions
 

  • Wash the green leaves + herbs in several changes of water. Drain well.
  • Wash and scrub the carrot, chop off the top.
  • Peel the beet and orange.
  • Place the collecting jug in position. In the juicer's feeding tube / chute, put in the beet followed by the scrunched up greens. Start the machine and add in all the remaining ingredients.
  • This yields around 200 ml of juice. Mix well and pour into a glass over a cube of ice. Mix in a pinch of rocksalt.

Notes

The profusion of greens along with beet tends to give this a mildly metallic taste, which the ice and rock salt help balance out. Adding the orange to this mix ensures that the vitamin C from the orange helps absord the iron from the spinach and chard. This recipe yields one small glass of juice ~ 200 ml
