[umbarrooki]

OMG I love youuuuu!! I've been drinking the green drink for a week now and I feel so pretty hehehehe! My skin is glowing yaaaay!

[MizzFishy]

You are a BRAVE woman for chugging that stuff!

[glasnya]

OMG!

You are soo funny, i could not stop laughing from the beginning to end, lol

i will try it

[Themusicofangels]

i don't get it with chugging it down, its really good:)

[shamaldon]

Such a Beautiful Juice filled with minerals and vitamins Good CreolelnDC

[raspberrybaggio]

I just scoffed my Easter egg!

[iheartcardscaptor]

Good morning from NZ, i just made it for the first time this morning. I forgot the parsley and lime. I blended it and it looked like pesto. I started drinking it and looked this vid up to see if I did it right...ahahaa no...I needed to mush it up more....ahahaha too lumpy.

[planes100]

nice video cheers from australia . i drink this every morning and more . but i use a juicer not a blender. much thinner when i drink it .

[jweb8000]

NOOOOOOO!!!!! GINGER!!! STOOOOOOP!!! What are you doing! GINGER!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

[CharleneSunrise]

Maybe you could add something and turn it into a soup.

[CharleneSunrise]

I'm almost finished ("shiver")

[marshaloveslife]

well, i got all the ingredients..forgot parsley..but wondered if it was really made in a blender or juicer? Thanks for showing me!

[bladdan]

OMG so much ginger!!! hahahahha

Dr. Oz Green Drink Recipe * 2 apples, cored * 2 big handfuls of spinach * 1/2 cup of chopped parsley * 1 celery stick, chopped * 1 thumbnail length of ginger root, peeled * 1 lemon - juice only (use peel slice for zest) * 1 medium cucumber

[tiltphoto]

You are just to cute!!! Thanks for the smile and the info

[csbob2004]

you need a blendtec

[TheChangeling9]

fuck blendtec just use a regular blender

[nitelillie]

by the way, it's Dr. Oz -(pronounced AHHzzz) not OoOOoOz.

:)check out Oprah or google him out, you'll hear it said as Ahz... ciao :)

[BAMTKZ]

it is not aahz, in turkish it is just OZ ;) ciao :)

[cmcil]

I love how you say Dr Oozze's lol. You are hilarious. I would look into getting a stainless steel champion juicer. It's expensive but I've had mine over ten years now.

[raspberrybaggio]

i add banana to mine. then it justs tastes like banana milkshake, all lovely and sweet. try that instead. i now have mine everyday.

[rmsolympic1]

Keep at it! Those are great for you. You probably just might want to adjust the ingredient amounts - for instance, ginger is strong and can easily overwhelm the rest of the drink - to taste. But you keep doing it, and you'll not only like them; you'll also begin to eat more fruits and vegetables.

[CanGal66]

Your one funny gal...and that song in the background..it's like that song "this is the song that never ends"...lol....Great vid! And btw, I love the swamp juice..hubby and I drink it all the time...I do use the banana for extra sweetness...makes a big difference.

[blkcatwillow]

HOW did you drink down that much ginger? It must have been super spicy. Wow! And your poor blender! Oh man, you are so funny-great video!

[UPDABLOCKMUSIC]

LOL!

As im wathing this video im laughing because im drinking my green drink at work making faces at my desk. This stuff aint no joke. This is kinda wierd tasting. But it you knock it down in the morning, you wont have to worry about it anymore.. I got to do mine three times a day with ionized distilled water with pH drops added to alkaline my water to 9.

[adrifoster08]

Hey there!! So i made the Green drink today...then after I tasted how aweful mine was (i'm def gonna finish though after all the HARDWORK I put into making it!!) I decided to google it and see if anyone else had a bad encounter...Wow!! I'm not alone. Get this however; my recipe was a bit off: I used the following: 1 cup spinach, 1 fuji apple (de-seeded), 3 stalks celery, 1 cucumber, here's where I went wrong 2 inches of peeled ginger, and 1 lime and lemon...peeled..whoops!! SPICEY indeed!!

[GLDRL7]

CreoleInDC,

I viewed this video on 9-17-08; woman you are too funny (we still did not see your honey drink his fair share of the green drink). A juicer would have made this process much easier. Also, there should have been more beneficial greens in this formula (green vegetables are very powerful in the body - they help a multitude of things; you just won't believe it). Suggestion: Juice some carrots along with your greens (carrots are extremely sweet and they provide added benefits).

[LMBB1975]

LOL...great video!! thanks for sharing it...i'll have to try the Dr. Oz green drink myself. :o)

[satkorsan]

Why bother with a juicer, want it more liquidy? Simply add in a little water! And guess what? Water is an important part of a healthy diet as well.

BTW, Dr. Oz rocks! He should appear on TV more often.

[presouz]

I think she meant it had too much fiber where as a juicer would only give the juices from all that stuff..which Hey fiber is OK for health too!

[Margaux666]

Now this is the FUNNIEST!!!! video I have ever seen. LOL it looks VERY much like the stuff my husband and I drink every day. Kudos to you for giving it a try and sharing your experience with us here on youtube!

[MiKikaIwaShizaru]

I have to drink my prev. mentioned vegetable drink in the late afternoon, to me the morning it is so much harder to drink! I might try to add lemon and lime to my other drink, ginger-green tea! Try this: Green tea Pure Cranberry juice Pure Pomegranate juice Ginger to taste (not too much, it can be spicy-HOT) And a little stevia! (Stevia is PERFECT for tea, the white powder version!) I'll try adding lemon and lime to it and report back! Oprah's lucky, she just says "make me this" to her chefs!

[TUBEONE3]

I laughed until I cried. I had tears running down my face! What a riot! I too tried this Dr. Oz green drink. Thick... I emailed Dr.Oz and asked him if he left out an ingrediant. I still am waiting to find out!! You made me laugh so hard!!!

[jus42nyt]

Maybe a juicer would be a good investment.

[MiKikaIwaShizaru]

In my opinion, a really powerful mixer is better than a juicer, I have both, and a juicer is a pain to clean, my vitamix just rinses out with one drop of detergent! And juicers discard all of that beneficial fiber! Vitamixes are expensive, but they last a long time!

There's probably other mixers on the market that do a good job too like the Vitamix, but believe me, you WILL get tired of cleaning a juicer day after day! I have a good Braun juicer, I hate cleaning it!

[rmsolympic1]

How much for the Vitamix? I am eventually going to get it or a Blendtec; although it might be costly, a blender with that kind of versatility and power is an excellent investment that will pay back with health and energy.

[misshaykemup]

My son and I watched your video this morning... your so funny. I think we'll try this also. I'm reading a lot on becoming a vegan and also on RAW FOODS...

Have a beautiful day.

[articwulfee]

this was so helpful my boyfriend and i were trying to figure out what "half a ginger root" was.

thanks!!!!

[rb724]

Bless your heart .... you made me laugh out loud for the first time since I lost my precious dog last week ...thank you , God bless xo - Roseann

[MiKikaIwaShizaru]

I forgot to mention an important ingredient, 2 cups water (I sometimes replace a meal with it, it's very low calorie), otherwise it will be WAY too thick, don't drink it too fast, or you will get an ice cream headache.

Proceed at your own risk!!

[MiKikaIwaShizaru]

Hey, he stole my idea! (heh heh)

For years, I've been sometimes making a drink like that in a Vita-Mix!

Ingredients:

1/4 block frozen spinach

1 or 2 carrots

4 Tablespns tomato paste (no sugar added)

One cup frozen broccoli florets

1/4 teaspoon stevia (natural sweetener)

Now, I'd like to say I drink it two or three times a week, but that wouldn't be true, I'm not that consistent, but for a while I was drinking it every third day, and by gosh it made me feel pretty good!

It's an acquired taste!

[rmsolympic1]

Okay, so you can use frozen vegetables to make these? Cool; they are probably cheaper than the fresh ones, although they may be slightly less nutritious.

[MiKikaIwaShizaru]

Yes, I calculated it costs about 75 cents to make per day, since I made this comment I've made it every day (from Aug 9 to Aug 28)

If you use frozen vegetables it is SO much easier because you don't have to wash everything! I started using loose frozen spinach, too, that's easier.

Good luck and good health!

BTW, CreoleInDC, I like the "Witch Doctor" background music, written by the Chipmunks "father"!

[Archangell]

I also Made the green Drink (yuck)! I used a magic bullet, Cut all the ingredients in Half because of the size of the magic bullet, It It looked just like yours. but was NASTY and clumpy!! In the afternoon instead of blending the green drink I choose to juice the ingredients. Wow I loved it!!!! So it's probably true that a high quality liquefying blender would do the trick. Also Adding more apple if you need a sweeter taste is a good idea.

[wndndrsn]

Loved watching your spot. What a trooper, I too was looking for Dr Oz's Green drink, I do a lot of juicing (sounds illegal) then at the health food store I came across Vita Greens, its liquid chlorophill you add to water for the same effect, without the bloating or gas that cucumber may give some of us.

Thanks for your demo, you are great to watch.

Wendy in NS

[aquariuskaren1977]

I second the person who said you should have your own show, I was laughing so much through the video. And yeah, I don't think you were supposed to use HALF a ginger root!!

[joeblowxxl]

you are funny.....i loved watching your video :)

[Malook83]

OMG I can't believe you ate that much ginger in one sitting! I think he meant half an INCH of ginger! lol you poor thing, what a trooper!

[ego969]

P.S. I just sent a note to Oprah to have her watch you too. Maybe she'll have you on the show...if she ever gets the note. :)

[ego969]

I was just copying down Dr. Oz's Green drink recipe when I came across your video. That was funny. I, too think you should have your own show, and I'm a producer. You have a great personality and you made me chuckle. As a matter of fact, I would be one of your biggest fans. Just do it...even if you don't make any money. You have natural talent and it would be a shame not to continue sharing it with the world. Smootches to you too!

John

[astan80]

thanks for the video! i've been looking at various recipes and i found a combo that i really like: orange, banana, lots of spinach, kale and cucumber, lots of ice and sometimes i'll use ginger or almonds for a change. the almonds make it creamier and add a nice complexity. i also have a Vita-Mix and it's totally liquid in 45 seconds or so, a really great texture that my old Blendtec just didn't produce. make sure you leave the white pith on the orange - 3x more vitamin c in that stuff!

[JluxExclusive]

I though you were suppose to add water and ice?

[katswanmom]

You should have your own show! That was fabulous, fun and funny! Thank you for making me chuckle...think I'll go and make that drink!

[choco1154]

what's the music in the backround? i know i should know it but i can't put my finger on it. it's so annoying!

[choco1154]

i feel really smart right now. it was at the end of the video :)

[sweethaze613]

the witchdoctor song!

[magictrick06]

I just tried making this for the first time and figured, "yikes, this can't be right!" so got online to see if I could see someone else's attempt. Bless Your Heart! ROTFLOL! Thanks for sharing! I'm going to add some honey now...

[mrebecca1]

haha! I like you...funny...too damn early for ginger pealing!

[waterslv]

Cute.... Funny. The key is live enzymes. I wouldve used a real lemon and lime, since a lemon has billions of enzymes. Also don t forget to eat the lemon peel.

[fridaalady]

haha this was funny...hey pl dont u know ginger is hot, very hot so u have to use only small part of it lol...actualy green smooth is better u can put some leaf spanach or something with aple and banana and thats the really tasty and nice...and help ur body to be younger and stronger

[MastersSecret]

Hahahahaha .. that was fun lets do it again. This time add some tobasco. lol I'm just kidding. Keep on drinking. :)

[toledogirl]

you had me cracking up giiirrrlll!maybe you would like juicing better!I juice it's very healthy for ya..

[stephbrakurt]

turtles are green too. i like turtles!

[borat123]

LOL, you used waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much ginger. that must have been one strong drink!

[rocknbaba]

Oprah called it *FRESH* I dont like spinach, and it has no sugar in it...you're brave.

But I dont remember ; hmmm...well, to stay younger, I bet it's nothing compares to the knife.

[wildnites558]

Instead of lemon juice, try Pineapple juice as your base. It makes the drink go from horrible to delicious! Also, A great way to flavor up a green drink and make it even healthier is to add green tea extract that you can get at your local Vitamin Shoppe and the like. Green Tea extract comes in an eye-dropper bottle. I use the Herbsway brand, V.S has there own house brand, too. Usually a 60-day supply. You just put an eye-dropper's worth of the extract in your greet drink and Voila! Tasty Drink!

[DreDay4u1]

You should purchase a Juicer. I'd recommend the Breville Elite Juicer XL.

[CreoleInDC]

I did and I don't like that it removes all of the pulp.

[christafredrickson]

youre funny!!!

[c1112007]

Thanks for the post... on the show Dr Oz said to use half an inch of ginger, so that's about an eigth of what you used! Hopefully that change would make it taste a bit better.

[rurouniofeast]

maybe milk would help?

[choco1154]

v8 vfusion tastes sooo good!!! full serving of fruit and vegetables in every glass!! (lol i'm sounding like one of those commercials!)

[borat123]

fusion is terrible for you. its pure junk.

[Frisou277]

Did you say it was'nt bad? It looked really painfull ! lol !! ;)

[SilentPunk101]

what page is the green drink on?

[TheeMp3]

haha, almost finished :D,

[MaryAsinger]

Thanks for all the information!

I wish you a happy and HEALTHY new year ;-)

[debohobo]

I make this and drink it three times a day. I have made some modifications to it but over all I really enjoy the beneifts of the drink. SO, drink up!

[athanko]

Can you share with us the benefits of the drink?

I am curious to find out!

[SexxxyWacko]

You are a real sweetie for sharing this.  I have the recipe for Dr. Oz's green drink but I haven't gotten around to trying it, now that I have seen a real person make and drink it, I am motivated....Oprah said it was the freshes drink she's ever tasted....Ya right... You go girl....

[lordjared]

you might want to try a product called Green Goodness by Bolthouse Farms. It contains spinach,broccoli, and lots of other things that are unapetizing but great for you and it's tasty!

[ohtime]

lolololol i laughed when u made that sour face

[Summermoon792]

Your video was great! I wonder if Dr. Oz had added more liquid juice or water in the mixture to thin it out some.

[CreoleInDC]

Hi guys! I made modifications after I found more info on. You only use 1/2 inch of ginger root. Also...I add the "soft" things first and liquify and then add the "hard" things. Made it more liquid-y. (LOL!)

To make it more pleasing to taste...I also added a banana. Now I like it!

My husband refuses to try it again so I save the other half in the blender jar and just "re-blend" the next morning adding about 1/4 cup of hot water.

[MKirGBP]

I don't own a blender but do have a PowerJuicer and have made this juice. I loved it. Although I think there is a point about not getting the extra nutrients and fiber contained in the pulp.

[cozyd]

Thank you for showing the reality behind making the drink... you were great, and a great sport for doing it in your robe. The juicer may make it "juicier", but it will take away a lot of the necessary nutrients in the pulp.

[BeCoily3Paula]

whats supposed to be so great about it? You can also just add more juice.
