Spicy Vegetable Juice

I wasn't sure I would enjoy this beverage with a hint of cayenne but it has become a great addition to my afternoon beverages. My brother in law has been making it for his breakfast based off a recipe from Dr. Gregor. The creator toted it as a metabolic booster, and let's be honest the jury is out on that, BUT it is a great way to get in extra vegetables, especially this time of year when you might have to much produce kicking around that is bound to go bad before you can roast and eat it. If you are having the girls over for brunch or cocktails this would also double as a great Bloody Mary mix :)




1/3 of a Beet
1 cup Greens (kale, spinach, arugula etc)
1 TB Apple Cider Vinegar
1/4 tsp Cayenne pepper
1/4 tsp ground Turmeric
1/2 Lemon
1 Grapefruit, peeled
2 stalks Celery
1 Carrot
2 Scallions, roots removed
2 cloves Garlic, peeled
1 cup Tomato juice, low sodium (we used Trader Joe's Garden Patch juice)

1. Toss it all in the blender whole and zap it until it liquefies!
