Sweet Potato Pie Juice

I can't help but hum "Song, song of the south, Sweet potato pie and I shut my mouth" when I think of this juice. I doubt that the group Alabama was thinking about juice when they first sang about sweet potato pie, but the thought that might have been makes me smile. Either way, I think you'll hum too after trying this drink.

Notes

This recipe calls for a juicer. Since sweet potatoes are hard to cut, they might not work well with a regular blender. But, if you have access to a high-powered one, all you've got to do is place the prepped ingredients in the blender and blend. Depending on the strength of your blender, you may need to chop your ingredients into smaller pieces and add them piecemeal. You will probably want to strain the blend before drinking it to make the texture more pleasant. Here is a video showing you how to strain the blend. You will need a strainer like this one and a mesh bag like this one.
