Honestly am not a fan of green juice. It's one of the things I have to try because I'm one of those healthy-ish people, but gah.... it's not my cup of tea. They either taste like celery or kale and super bitter. So I went and experimented to give you guys a green juice that doesn't suck. This version is refreshing and light, yet also has the addition of good protein from collagen and hemp seeds.
There is still a little sweetness from the apples and the coconut water, but not too much. It's like drinking a very gingery matcha tea with lots of mint. In a word it's tastes like it looks - very fresh.
I don't use this juice as a meal replacement. I have been drinking it every morning with my toast and fried egg sandwich, to get some greens in early in the day.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ Cups Baby Spinach
- ½ Cup Fresh Mint Leaves
- 1 Tablespoon Crushed Ginger
- 2 Tablespoons Matcha
- 2 Scoops Collagen
- 2 Tablespoons Hemp Seeds
- 1 Green Apple Seeded and Cut into Chuncks Leave the Skin On
- 2 Cups Water and Ice
- 1 Cup Coconut Water
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in a blender and blend on high for 2 minutes to fully breakdown the spinach and apples. If it's still too thick add more water.
- Serve in a 8 oz glass and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Haha I totally know what you mean about that bitter gross taste green juices can sometimes have, this sounds like a nice way to temper down the intense flavors a bit while still having maximum benefits!
