The Living Apothecary

not even a slight hint of effervescence :(

Real good juice especially Strawberry Mint. Picked up first bottle in San Fran farmers market. I can see this being addicting but living in Livermore limited opportunity to stock up. Very expensive and limited shelf life but it’s organic. I will try to get more next trip up.

Really great. but really expensive. this drink is definitely not for someone who is on a budget! This drink is $ 8.00 but delicious… but I know for a fact that I wouldn’t repurchase just because I would rather buy regular vanilla almond milk for $ 3.00 a carton at Whole Foods. I tried the classic almond milk and there was no «grainy» taste so that was a plus… milk was smooth… very smooth. The classic listed that it had some dates+vanilla bean in it. but the flavors were really weak, I didn’t taste any dates in mine. and I like to think my palate is pretty refined! The drink is very VERY subtly sweet from the natural sweetness of vanilla+almonds, there are no added sugars in this! The vanilla flavour is subtle, but its there. but the dates like I said was non-​existant. The question of spending that much money on drink seemed to be justified the moment I was reading the label and I spotted «dates» because this added flavour seemed interesting enough for me to purchase. sadly because I didn’t taste any dates, I just can’t justify paying that much money for something that isn’t unique. Yes, I know its local, yes I know its «healthy», yes its probably a lot of work to make this drink, but the «original» flavor isn’t special.
I purchased mine at Bi-​Rite in San francisco. and I remember seeing Tumeric Snap Almond, Cacao Peppermint Almond Cashew, and the Classic… if you are feeling spendy then snag one of these bad boys up (just not the classic) and drink up!

I tasted a few drinks from The Living Apothecary at a farmer’s market on Sunday morning. I was instantly hooked. Their green juice was easily the best green juice I have ever had. I had to buy one. Then, tonight I finally tried the Tumeric Snap Almond milk and it was so amazing. So Amazing. So. Amazing.
So yeah, I am now on the internet at 8:30pm on a Monday night looking for where I can go buy more. That good.
