But today, I decided to try something different. It stemmed from the hypothesis that it may help my digestion.. And anyways it&#8217;s pretty healthy. So, I took a fistful that was sitting in my windowsill  sort of on the verge of wilting, chopped it up, and threw it in a blender along with some frozen peaches, a frozen banana, a little slosh of orange-mango juice, almond milk, ground Ginger, and fresh vanilla. With my roomate looking on and me peering through the glass, a bit terrified by the contents as i closed the lid, I turned the blender on and watched as the bits of green spun into a liquid twister, emerging back out as smaller bits, until eventually they evolved the mix into a bright green consistency.
