Healthy Morning Drink

KICKstart your summer mornings with this fresh, healthy and invigorating drink filled with the goodness of vegetables, a hint of mint, lime, honey and ginger. The kids, who otherwise eat veggies not because they love to but because they have to [no choice with mean old mom around:)], surprisingly, look forward to a glass of this mixed veggie juice everyday. That, for me, is the barometer of a recipe's success at home.

Ditch your morning cuppa during this summer and sip on this instead while taking in the day's dreary headlines.

What you need:
1 beetroot
1 carrot
1 big tomato
1 cucumber
5 mint leaves
Juice of a quarter
of a lime
1/4" piece of ginger
1 cup water
1 tablespoon honey

Peel beetroot, carrot and cucumber and roughly chop them and the tomato. Puree in a blender along with all the other ingredients, except the honey. Strain juice. Sweeten with the honey.
