a chunk of fresh ginger, peeled and sliced

4-8   sprigs of mint

1        tablespoon fresh lime juice (optional)

Serves 1

• Push half the apples through the tube, then the ginger, mint, and lime juice, if using, then the remaining apples.
• Variation – Frozen Apple Margarita —- Put 1 cup crushed ice into a blender, add the juice, and blend to a froth.  The Margarita is ready when the sound of the motor changes – that means the mixture has risen away from the blades.
