January Juice Boost

I've been attempting to make 'juice' from some of the fruit and vegetables that arrived in this week's box of organic produce. I say 'attempting' because I don't have a juicer. They seem expensive so I wondered if I could create a smoothie version of the recipe using my blender. The result is ok but I am sure the flavour would be more intense if I used a juicer. Perhaps I will succumb to buying one (I don't think I can easily do the juicing manually). This particular concoction is beetroot, apple, carrot, ginger and lemon juice. It tastes good!
