Happy Hour
Beneficial Beverages
Skip the after-hours cocktail and get healthy with one of these salubrious smoothies. By Paul Adler
Lean Green
Organic Pharmer,
$9.66
This inventive smoothie,
produced by one of
Westchester’s most popu-
lar juice bars, blends kale,
avocado, cucumber, banana,
lemon, ginger, and apple juice, producing a drink that is at once surprisingly rich and slightly spicy, with distinct vegetal undertones.

Andy’s Pure Food, $8.95
An out-of-the-box take on vegetable juice, this unique
offering by the strictly organic Andy’s Pure Food is a sweet symphony of
carrot, orange, and apple enlivened by a subtly spicy
punch of ginger.
46 Purchase St, Rye (914) 967-2332
Watermelon Lime
o2Living, $5.95
While undoubtedly
lighter on the veg-
gies, this deceptively
simple smoothie
blends watermelon,
ice, and lime juice to
great effect. One of the
most refreshing drinks
in the county, this is a much
simpler take on the classic juice-bar offering.

Berry Boost
Organic Pharmer, $9.66
This is an all-around classic smoothie for those who aren’t
exactly in love with the whole kale-based beverage
concept. A foundation of strawberry, raspberry, and banana is enhanced by the
complex flavor and eye- popping color of açai berry.
