Adventures in Juicing: Apple-Cucumber After Dinner Drink

I decided to use up the rest of some of my produce to make a delicious, lighter juice. Not as much of a kick as the one I made a yesterday, but effin' delicious - and healthy! Because I had just eaten a full meal, I mixed the juice with some club soda (approx. 2 parts juice, 1 part soda)...

1 apple

1 stalk celery

1 cucumber

1 lemon

1.5" ginger

1 carrot

1 cup club soda (-ish - don't run club soda through your juicer, that's just silly.)

Garnish this delicious juice with mint, if you like - or muddle the shit out of your mint and add it in. 

Splitting it into three servings...
