Wheatgrass, Apple & zucchini "tea" and recipes

© Stephie McCarthy

Make a non-bitter, refreshing green tea-flavored drink for energy which is also superb for skin and hair.

Ingredients and directions:

1 cup chopped zucchini or vegetable marrow (large or small, but fresh).

1 medium green apple choped

1/3 cup snipped wheatgrass blades.

1 quart or 24 ounces of water.

Add all ingredients in a blender and process until water is bright green. Pour through a mesh sieve into a bowl, then transfer to a pitcher … discard the pulp. We use our pulp as compost outdoors.

Our energy "tea" is cold enough to drink right from the blender, but sometimes we add ice.
