  • 1 bunch celery broken into individual stems
  • 10-12 mini peppers - yellow and red (sliced if it won't fit in whole in to your juicer)
  • 1 inch piece ginger
  • 2 tomatoes, sliced in to wedges
  • 2 serrano peppers (optional, if you want the additional kick of spice. Use 1 red bell pepper and 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced, if you do not have mini peppers.)
  • A generous pinch of Himalayan Black Salt (called "kaala namak" in Hindi and can be found in ethnic Indian grocery stores)
  • Half a lime or lemon

  • Put all the ingredients through the juicer using the harder vegetables like celery to push the softer ones like tomatoes and bell pepper in
  • Pour in to glasses, add a dash of black salt and a squeeze of lemon to taste and sitr

Note: Himalayan Black Salt or "Kaala Namak" is actually pinkish in hue and is used in Ayurvedic medicine as a cooling digestive aid. You can find this easily in ethnic Indian grocery stores.
