This is a delicious and easy way to get those elusive green vegetables in the diet. Children especially love this drink by some of its nicknames: dinosaur drink, lizard juice, power boost...what name can you give it? Yes, it really does taste great!
1 cup sliced strawberries
2 cups apple juice
2 handfuls raw spinach leaves and stems
1 TB ground flax seed
Put all ingredients into the blender (I favor the vitamix) and blend until smooth. Serve immediately.
This drink is also good without the ground flax seed; but it will be bubbly and full of air.
Another variation that we enjoy is to substitute blueberries for the strawberries. It will make a much darker drink, but equally delicious.
Try adding different juices, greens or fruit until you can find your perfect combination.
