This Green Lemonade Is The Perfect Amount of Sweet and Spicy
(Photo: Kate Lewis)
Green lemonade is the Cadillac of juicing recipes. The juice is a little sweet (thanks to the apple) and a little spicy (gracias to the ginger). The natural bitterness of leafy greens is cut by a bright squeeze of lemon. You can use almost any type of leafy green in place of chard or kale. This juice is a perfect vehicle for all of your greenest fridge scraps.
