This recipe originated while taking the train into Manhattan for sparring sessions at the famed Gleason’s Gym in Brooklyn. I’d take a juice made from carrot, apple, and ginger for the commute. And now you can take this colorful and nutritious juice with you anywhere.
SPICY CARROT JUICE

INGREDIENTS
1⁄2 head of cauliflower
8 carrots
2 golden beets, peeled
2 red-skinned apples, cored
1⁄2-inch (1.25cm) piece of fresh ginger
DIRECTIONS
1 In a pot on the stovetop over medium heat, cover the cauliflower with water. Bring to a boil and cook for 1 minute. Plunge the cauliflower into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
