Carrot Apple Grapefruit Ginger Juice


 This juice is so good, it doesn't need an intro.  Just go make it. Really.

What You’ll Need:
3 carrots
1 grapefruit
1 pink lady apple
1 inch long chunk ginger
1 teaspoon honey (optional)

What you’ll do:

Peel grapefruit. Cut carrots and apple into chunks. Cut chunk of ginger.

Throw all into your juicer or Vita-Mix. Blend until mixed -unless you want to make crackers with the pulp.  If you do, read the note below.

*If you decide to reserve the pulp for raw cracker dough, then you might want to blend the carrot and apple first, strain and reserve pulp, then add the rest of the ingredients to your carrot apple juice, blend, then strain again.
