Spinach Pear Juice

Spinach is always such a wallflower at the juice flavor party. And while it’s quite obvious from its appearance that this juice contains greens, I’d challenge anyone to a blindfold taste test—pear is very clearly the dominant flavor here. The riper the pear, the better the flavor. Reprinted with permission from Superfood Juices: 100 Delicious, Energizing & Nutrient-Dense Recipes* © 2014 by Julie Morris, Sterling Publishing Co., Inc.
