Yummy!!!
I just bought my Vitamix and this was the first recipe I made, it was so yummy! I’m doing a juice/smoothie cleanse and so far I’m really loving it and feel light and full of energy. Love my Vitamix! It’s my new best friend. :)

Google to the rescue
Full disclosure: I have not made this recipe. Mainly because I did not recognize the ingredients. So, I Googled them. Turns out that the first two are citrus fruits. Not a bad thing unless you happen to be me. Due to cholesterol issues, I have to take medication that prevents me from being able to consume any kind of citrus. Apparently, bad things happen. Such is life.
