Move over coffee. Green juice is becoming one of the most popular drinks in Australia.

The idea of fruit and vegetable juicing isn't anything particularly new: I remember my mom making bottles and bottles of berry and apple juice from our orchard when I was little, so did everybody else during harvest.

What's new is that green juicing uses large quantities of leafy veg and brassicas such as kale, spinach, chard and broccoli and a new technique: cold-pressing which means slowly extracting the liquids.

The juices are delicous and taste zesty and vital. I find it important to drink them straight away and not add too many fruits, as the sugars add up really quickly. And of course: organic produce is preferred.
