Basil Refresher Juicer Recipe

This juice recipe is adapted from Gweneth Paltrow's recipe on www.goop.com.  I've substituted lemon for the lime as I always have a lemon on hand.  Initially I thought the basil might be very strong and perhaps overpowering, but I must say that this drink was very well balanced and tasted very good.  This recipe doubles the original one because I found that it only made about 5-6 ounces.

Basil Refresher Juice
3/4-1 cup fresh basil
2 cucumbers
1 lemon (peeled.  white pith okay)
2 apples

Wash produce and cut into pieces that fill fit into your juicer.  Juice and enjoy.
