Green Juice comes to Pret a Manager

As I suspected, the increasing demand for green juice is starting to become mainstream which is great!

I was in Pret a Manager today right near Green Park Station in Central London, and was delighted to see a very green looking drink that would be very at home in Saf’s Raw Food Restaurant!

Ok, for those hardened green juice drinkers amongst you, I know what you’re thinking! YES, the Green Juice, Pret a Manager style, has far more apple juice (i.e. sugar) than juiced greens (only 10% from spinach and celery) and YES, it isn’t cold-pressed…

BUT, it’s a start and I’d always recommend encouraging people (especially children) to get used to drinking green drinks that taste nice and make positive brain associations, rather than jumping in at the deep-end with juiced wild nettle and spinach juice. I made this mistake years ago when I was new to green juice and very enthusiastic about the benefits. A friend, Shana, came to stay and wasn’t impressed with the look or taste of her (extremely healthy) green juice. To be honest, I doubt Shana will ever go near a green juice again, thanks to this experience…
