Vitamix
An investment in your beautiful body. I based an entire book around Clean Green Drinks and the Vitamix blender passed every test with flying colors. I absolutely recommend this gorgeous blender to anyone looking to boost their health and clean living! So fast, efficient, quiet, and just all-around perfect-o. I blend a green smoothie in here 1-2 x a day. Vitamix and I have donated many machines to charitable organizations and schools and I’ve taught hundreds of students in my classes using these machines. Also preferred by all chefs, we cook using only the Vitamix in professional kitchens. It’s got my A+++ seal of CK approval!

Chemex
Pour over coffee, the best way to go. The Chemex has changed the way I drink. I actually use an herbal coffee in mine; Teeccino, no caffeine jolt necessary. The Chemex also makes for an amazing gift for your friends and better than your Dad’s 80’s electric drip machine!
