Altogether this made about 36 oz of juice!! Mostly I could taste the peach and the lemon over everything else, followed closely by the cucumber and then the green flavor of the spinach, parsley & cilantro.

There was just a touch of bite from the ginger root that I could taste. This felt much like a thinned down smoothie, thicker than juice but not as thick as a typical smoothie. Very tasty!

Ben & Jerrys Greek Frozen Yogurt

Greek Fro'Yo' this time!

~Trying Greek Frozen Yogurt for the first time~

Blueberry Vanilla Graham




I tried the Ben & Jerry's frozen yogurt in one of my fav flavors- phish food & really enjoyed it! I have yet to find a Greek Fro' Yo' flavor in chocolate- I find I just prefer either chocolate ice creams or something that has a lot of something chocolate in it.

I tried the Greek Frozen Yogurt Raspberry Fudge Chunk (I think that was it's name) and it was ok but not something I'd buy again-but I think that had more to do with the raspberry flavor than the greek frozen yogurt bit.

Same here with the Blueberry Vanilla Graham-while I like this one better than the raspberry, I think I just prefer something with more chocolate to it. So I may buy the Fro'Yo' once in a while but until I find a Greek Frozen Yogurt with more chocolate, I prob won't get it again ;-P
