Shankar Juice

St-Barthélemy


Tucked upstairs in a small mall, Shankar's is a diamond find for freshly squeezed juices with names such as 'sweet green' (spinach, cucumber, apple and lemon), smoothies called 'purple rain' (acai, banana and coconut water) and bottled varieties including an invigorating ginger drink. For an additional dose of detox, order an acai bowl.
