Green lemonade is the Cadillac of juicing recipes. This is my take
on the beloved classic. 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. Romaine, baby spinach, collard, bok choy, broccoli—you name it! In fact, I love adding broccoli stems to this recipe. Get creative. This juice is a perfect vehicle for all of your greenest fridge scraps.
