Notes: This was another weird one. It reminded me of some of the Thai dishes that my wife's mother makes. They use a lot of banana leaves as wrappers for steamed dishes and the flavor is very similar. They also use sugarcane, as well, but those strong "vegetable" flavors only come through with the banana leaves. I don't know if I would drink this juice everyday, but it might make a great base for a sauce or dressing.
