Are you wondering what it is? It's juice. It's called the Get Up, and it's a blend of carrot, apple, orange, and pineapple juices, freshly squeezed. Mine had ginger added.
You get it here, at Sip, a juice cart in SE Portland. It was my first visit.
You order at the counter, and they make it right in front of you. I'm going back ASAP for more. I want to try the Summer Breeze, which is apple, cucumber, pineapple, cilantro, and lime. This juice is amazing.
