This Beet Juice Cocktail is surprisingly addictive.  A Vitamix blender is all you need to be minutes away from a refreshing, nutrient-dense libation.  Using fresh, organic ingredients is paramount to creating the healthiest version of this recipe.  Also, the salt is a key ingredient. Do not omit it unless you must.  It takes the whole experience from being merely palatable to absolutely delicious! When you are finished creating your cocktail, don’t discard the pulp.  Instead, use it to make Beet Crisps in your dehydrator.
