If you don't like the green earthy taste of green juice you can use 1 serving of fruit to sweeten it up, pineapple and pear are good options for masking the flavor. Lemon is also another great option, it brightens the flavour and masks the earthiness. A small amount of ginger is another great way to change the flavor, giving your juice a spicy flavour.
