Celery Mint Juice Drink

Celery oh celery you are one of my favorite veggies to chomp on or juice.

The mint in this drink adds a little twist :) 

4 carrots
2 celery sticks
3 clementines or oranges  ( I used clementines )
1/4 cup fresh mint
1 lime

When I first made this drink I added more celery, carrots and lime so it would be enough for my family to drink. My husband said it would be better minus some of the celery. So if you double this juice recipe keep the celery at 2 sticks unless you like the strong flavor or celery :)

Found this info on line :

Because of the high calcium content, celery calms the nerves. So, eating celery helps people to be calm. Celery acts as an antioxidant too.

It also helps in the improvement of teeth.
Precautions: Celery seeds contain volatile oils, flavonoids, coumarins and linoleic acid and are therefore not good for pregnant women because they may cause contractions in the uterus.
