COCKTAIL CULTURE Getting Juiced Written by: Lauren Adam Juicing is one of this decade’s most popular health crazes. It has grown out of the wheatgrass shot and blossomed into a holistic approach full of nutrient rich options. From home juicers to grab-and-go at Whole Foods or off the menu at one of Seattle’s numerous juice bars, it’s evident that we’re willing to pay for the health benefits that come from juicing. To maximize nutrition, choose juices with leafy greens (spinach, collard greens, Swiss chard, kale, mustard greens), celery, carrot, cucumber, kiwi, papaya, grapefruit, red bell peppers, broccoli, strawberries, oranges, asparagus, and garlic. ANAR Brought to you by the brilliant creators of Mamnoon, Anar is an organic café offering vegetarian dishes and fresh juices.
