green juice cocktail

Bring on summer with this tart, hydrating libation. Salut!

Have I mentioned that I love summer?! It would have to be my favourite of all of the seasons and this is the perfect recipe to cool off and bask in the sunshine.

Full of antioxidants and vitamins, you can add a little tipple or keep it clean and your energy high.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup green juice (celery, cucumber, kale, lemon, green apple, ginger combo—but any green juice with at least 1 fruit will work. If you want to buy pre-made that’s fine too)

• 1-2 shots of tequila or Seedlip Garden 108

• 1/4 teaspoon agave or monk fruit drops to taste

• Juice from 1/2 of a lime

• Optional: slices of cucumber + kiwi + lime + mint for garnish

• Optional: I also add The Beauty Chef Cleanse occasionally to up the goodness!

METHOD:

Make the green juice in a juicer, or alternatively in a blender using a nut milk bag to strain juice and remove the pulp.

1. Fill up a cocktail shaker with ice. Top with green juice, tequila or Seedlip, natural sweetener of choice, optional Cleanse powder, and lime juice.

2. Shake well.

3. Pour into a glass with optional salt rim - this gives it a little something special.

4. Garnish with slices of kiwi, cucumber, lime and mint.
