Adventures in Juicing

I am exploring juicing, thanks to my new juicer! So far, so good - I'm one juice in. 

Here's what I threw together:

One big can of pineapple juice
Six apples
Four stalks of celery
Two cucumbers
Six limes
One lemon
One large carrot
Tons of ginger
Small bunch of mint



This turned out amazing! Super delicious, not too strong / not too weak, and just the perfect amount of spiciness that you can drink it with dinner!

Splitting this huge pitcher of juice into a generous 8 servings...
