While dandelion greens can taste very bitter, this juice uses sweet apples and tart limes to balance the bitterness. The result is an enticing juice with fresh, delectable flavors and a wide variety of nutrients, including beta-carotene, iron, magnesium and vitamins C and K, to name just a few.
We find that drinking a nutrient-rich juice like this one first thing in the morning provides us with enough energy to sustain us until lunchtime.
