I agree with the carrot, apple, ginger - that was how I started out juicing, and it's a nice easy and good-tasting juice. A few carrots, an apple for sweetness, and a SMALL amount of ginger (if you use too much, it is overpowering and will feel like it's burning your throat - my hubby found this out the hard way!). Experiment, have fun! Juice as often as you want - I try to juice a couple times a week at minimum, but I am not ambitious enough to juice every day. Lately I've been making this green juice - spinach, kale, and a couple oranges for sweetness. The juice looks green but tastes like orange - the oranges mask the bitterness of the kale nicely. And this morning for breakfast I had a "whatever is in the house" juice. My hubby made it but I think there were oranges, green pepper, maybe cucumber? Pears? I am not even sure what all went into it, but it was good. It's not easy to make a bad-tasting juice, so play around with it and have fun. And if you do make a bad-tasting juice, just add some oranges or apples and that should sweeten it right up. Good luck & have fun!
