New favorite green juice

We've been on a green juice kick lately. Green smoothies used to be our go-to breakfast, but I havent been in much of a smoothie mood. Thankfully, my kids have happily jumped on the green juice bandwagon and have been asking for more. So, here is our current family favorite:

--1 apple
--1 lime
--handful of spinach
--handful of parsley
--a few sorrel leaves (thanks, Paula!)
--water
--teaspoon of local honey (we are currently using Greentoe Gardens Eight Mile honey)

I love the gorgeous deep green color this combo produces. I was making a mason jar-full and sharing it with the kids, but now I am making one jar for me to drink throughout the morning and one for them with their breakfast. The juice feels much lighter and is much easier on my stomach, leaving me feeling more energetic and less bloated. I think we'll stick with this or awhile and see where it takes us...
