Friday Happy Hour...

...might look a little different over here.

I call this the Cuckalini Cocktail...


4 stalks of celery
1/2 peeled cucumber
4-5 stalks of broccolini
1/2 lemon
sprinkling of stevia to sweeten (optional)

Juice all veggies then pour into a tall glass and add just a little bit of natural sweetener if you like. Stir it up and then slowly add crushed ice or ice cubes while continuing to stir. Often times juice drinks and smoothies are poured directly over ice and I find that technique causes the liquids to coat the cubes thus resulting in less drink. And who doesn't want to get the most out of their healthy green drinks?

I think you'll be pleasantly surprised how refreshing (and simple) this is. So raise your glass and toast to good health! 

CHEERS!

*And for those who are free to indulge in an adult beverage I bet this would be delicious with a shot of organic vodka. Here are some of the best ones on the market to choose from:
