What exactly is this green concoction?

Brace yourself.

It’s romaine lettuce, an apple, banana, pineapple, mandarin oranges, and lemon juice.

Yes, really.

The actual recipe calls for spinach, cucumber, lemon juice, apple, celery, and ginger, but I improvised with what’s in the house.

It’s not too bad actually. Pretty refreshing, but I’m sure if I used the real ingredients, it would be much better.

Would you like a sip?

it kind of looks like what addison is always drinking on private practice, but I just assumed that it was wheatgrass or something.

I’m speechless.

I’d love a sip. With a little vodka and a squeeze of lime. Oh, and a little paper umbrella too.

I think I just threw up a little in my mouth.

I get the apple, banana, pineapple, oranges and lemon juice - but the lettuce? Hmm - not so sure.

Celery goes unusually well with apples, btw.

It looks good! Actually, the ‘called for’ option sounds good too. I like to juice spinach, apple, celery and ginger. I have a hayday at the grocery store - always looking for new things to juice!
