TJS + The Cosmopolitan=A Deliciously Juicy Duo.

January 6, 2016 By Jen Chase

Last month, we were beeyond thrilled when the cone of silence was lifted on something we’d kept close to our proverbial hives for a long, long time: In early 2016, The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas is enveloping TJS’s first Strip location within the gorgeous walls of this provocative, evocative property.

As the newest venue to join the resort’s eclectic and expansive dining and beverage program, our shiny new outpost will feature the same signature cold-pressed sips made with organic produce, nuts, seeds and grains that have made us a local fan favorite. We’ll also be selling our signature juice cleanses (detox before you retox, anyone?); items from the chewables menu we’ve launched at The Rose and The Hive; and a few things so hotly unmentionable we’re under penalty of tickling torture to keep our lips shut until there’s permission to start spreading the news.

About The Collaboration

Speaking on behalf of herself and TJS’s Co-founder and Chief Operating Officer Marcella Williams, in the statement that announced the collab, TJS’s Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer Jamie Stephenson shared some self-contained excitement over the sparkly new endeavor. “We are ecstatic about our new home at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas (TCOLV) and can’t wait to introduce The Juice Standard to juice lovers from all over the world. We couldn’t have found a better place to introduce our juices, which are made from the finest fresh organic produce using a method we’ve brought to the Las Vegas Strip.”

As our devoted Bees know, our original recipes (divined by Jamie and Marcella and made possible by our outrageous kitchen staff that presses juice every morning) are made from a cold-pressing process that applies 1,500 pounds of pressure to raw, all- organic produce. One of the reasons we beelieve TCOLV chose to partner with us (and beelieve us, the competition was hot and heavy) is for the simple, healthful goodness we deliver in every bottle. Shunning more typical juicing machines and bottling methods like high pressure processing (HPP) (a process that denatures or pasteurizes juice and deactivates too much of its natural enzymes), wee beelieve in our cold-pressing technique for how it preserves as many of those health-activating enzymes as possible, making for a more nutrient-dense juice.

That folks will be able to pop over to The Cosmopolitan’s second floor and grab a juice before heading to the casino floor, Marquee dayclub or nightclub, or out to the Strip for some urban hiking, is a total testament to the resort’s dedication to providing patrons with a true array of dining options. People will be able to maintain as much of their typical healthy lifestyle as they want. Vacationing doesn’t get more balanced than that….

Cosmopolitan-EntranceAbout The Cosmopolitan

If you don’t yet know The Cosmopolitan, you must. Must! This luxe property, with an aesthetic that appeals to pretty much anyone’s affinity for stunningly appointed, texture- and color-combining design, offers a refreshingly different Strip experience. Big enough to get a little lost geographically confused, small enough to feel like you own it, the resort is at the The Strip’s center, where its multi-tower design offers stunner views of the city, and its 3000- plus hotel rooms feature residential-esque living spaces with private terraces. From its swank gaming floor; the Sahra Spa & Hammam; three distinct pools; a dayclub/nightclub; performance space, The Chelsea; uber-modern supper club Rose. Rabbit. Lie., and window (and real) shopping to beat the band, to say there’s something for everyone is a pathetically gross understatement. Yet, honestly, there’s nothing better to sum up its offerings.

So, yeah: You can see why we’re thrilled to beecome the exclusive juice bar at the sexiest property in all the land. Yep. Just like the George and Weezie Jefferson, we’re movin’ on up, too (in our case, daresay, “down?”) in the world. Gosh, we’d make for fab metaphorical neighbors….

(Now we dare you not to hum this bugger all day.)

Hi There, #WhyICleanse Promo Winners!

September 9, 2015 By Jen Chase

OH, Bees! You so sassy. Many of you answered our August call for your beeautifulist photos of TJS bottles, tagged with @TheJuiceStandard and paired with thoughtful comments about why you cleanse. Thanks to your artistry and ability to turn some nice phrases, a choice few earned one- and three-day cleanses on us. We couldn’t have been more proud.

These #WhyICleanse winners were announced Sept. 1, on Instagram:

Instagram Winner 702Rox

702rox and her multiple posts throughout the month were the picture of prettiness and peace. “I love juicing for the vitality, energy and nourishment it gives me.”


 

It’s all in a day’s healthy eating for this bee, who has changed her body thanks to her crazy Crossfit strength; taking a hard and honest look at her diet; and lineups of food and drink like these. “…I’m feeling healthier than ever and these juices are just a little bit of the magic that makes it happen for me. I still eat almost whatever I want, but I’m smarter about it now and think about it more so.”


Instagram Winner Ambularlc

Ambularlc got points for striking yet simple creativity. This beeauty cleanses “to hit the ‘reset’ button, for both my tastebuds and my mindset!” (Can you believe she’s a working mother of three?!)


 

We appreciated how many balls in the air this active mum keeps afloat...while using TJS juice as a tool for her health.

We appreciated how many balls in the air this active mum keeps afloat…all while embarking on her first multi-day cleanse, which she did with TJS. “My life is pretty intense with work, #EvanGodyTaylor, the doggies and finding time for myself to work out…I’ve always enjoyed [TJS’s] green juices for breakfast but I’m taking it to the next level. I’m not doing it to lose weight. I’m doing it to feel better.”


 

This Grammer's rededication to her vegetarian lifestyle started, in part, with a lineup like this. Proudda her.

This Grammar told us that her re-dedication to her vegetarian lifestyle started with a Standard Cleanse day like this. “TJS has such an awesome team. You can tell they’re genuine and want to provide their customers with the best organic products.”


 

This artful arrangement and equally artful sentiment won us over.

This artful arrangement and equally artful sentiment won us over. “I turn to The Juice Standard when I need a pick-me-up. When my mind and my body are tired, I can refuel myself with their juices….Better yet, all the workers really help me learn about the many benefits that these juices have. Cleansing give me the energy and confidence to accomplish more throughout the day.”


 

This lovely styling got our juices flowing.

This lovely styling got our juices flowing, but her sentiment was bomb.com. “Everything in moderation is a saying I like to go by. But when those cheese enchiladas that you’ve had a huge hankering for turn into a weekend full of margaritas, you need to bring yourself back down to the earth from that heaven. So, you find a different heaven that is The Juice Standard. Juicing makes me feel alive, whole and bright like the sun. Simply put, these juices make me feel oh-so-happy and taste really yummy.”


 

And here’s what some of you other clever kids had to say:

erikalove92: “#WhyICleanse: I cleanse because it is both mentally and physically challenging…but that is the best part. I am strengthened physically and mentally. I cleanse because I say #FxckCancer and all diseases! I once read, “Treat your body like it belongs to someone you love,” and that is why I cleanse: because I decided to love…me.”

trustlife: “#WhyICleanse: Four years ago I decided to start loving my body and treating it with respect. Replacing alcohol with cold-pressed juices has completely transformed my life! I’m healthier, happier and more fit than I’ve ever been! Thank you to The Juice Standard for keeping my nutrient levels at their optimum!”

corny_rae: “#WhyICleanse: I was born without a thyroid, so it’s very important for me to do everything I can to stay energized and well. The Juice Standard has the best juices for this. When I cleanse with The Juice Standard, I feel mentally and physically energized. I make huge strides on my journey to a fitter, healthier me!”

hellokaylaranaenails: “#WhyICleanse: I have yet to have the opportunity to do a [cleanse] but I am dying to…I’ve seen many other juice companies but I am always drawn right back to you!…You are the only company I’ve come across that is involved. You all truly believe in what you are doing and truly love your products. Your company’s customer service is beyond words and nothing is better than great customer service.”

simply_kaygee: “Juices from The Juice Standard are always something that I love to treat myself to. (Yup: I consider something healthy like this a treat.) I cleanse for ME, since it makes me feel great, less bloated, and much lighter and refreshed! It [brings me] one step closer to my fitness goals and has always been one of the best ways to bring out the healthier and happier me.”

determined_jenny: “#WhyICleanse: Practice peace, get rid of all those toxins, purify your surroundings and enhance love to the Universe.”


We’re beeyond thankful for all the participants’ love. Didn’t win? We hope you’re encouraged to visit us and give our rainbow of juices and flavors a try. Complimentary tastings guided by our amazing staff are available every day.

Last thing? Instagrammer erikalove92 included a quote in one of her posts that we just love:

“Let food be thy medicine, and medicine be thy food.” ~Hippocrates

Couldn’t agree more. 🐝

Summer Menu Switch-Up

August 4, 2015 By Jen Chase

We heart our Bees and strive long and hard to keep all y’all happy and healthy. Unplanned menu changes can feel like hiccups, but they usually lead to bigger and better things. Tastier ones, too. Here are some subtle changes percolating at The Hive and The Rose during the next month.

‘Bee Effective’ Is ‘Bee Gone’…For Now.

Many of you Bees know that The Juice Standard (TJS) procures organic produce from the most local sources possible…and that living in the desert, that means we depend on our good neighbor California for a sizeable portion of what we press.

In the past few weeks, storms and high temps across The Golden State have wreaked havoc on many crops that go into our recipes. From mildew and insect damage, to internal plant burn and burnage on plant tips and fringe, growers across the region are suffering mightily, which means buyers like us have to re-adjust.

Thankfully, our growers’ crops are allowing us to forge ahead with nearly everything TJS presses! But for the foreseeable (and hopefully brief) future, we’re hitting pause on BEE EFFECTIVE until we can bring it to you made from the healthiest, most nutrient-dense organic produce possible.

‘Bee Happy’ Growing Pains: Come early and often! image (3)

We’ve had an overwhelming demand for BEE HAPPY lately and it’s been selling faster than tickets to a D-Trump stump speech…to the point where we’ve been selling out. Like, a lot. It honestly took us by surprise. We’ve always had crazy-great feedback about BEE HAPPY’s rich cacao-ness and gentle spicing (and have you tried it in cocktails? Ooh-la-laaa….), so the first few times it happened were just kinda like, “Hmm. Vegas must be on a colossal chocolate kick.” But then the sell outs became more regular. Then we heard frustration in some of our loyal bees’ voices. Made us feel all 💔 inside.

So in the interest of full disclosure—beecuase we’re deep into transparency and that mindfulness shee-it—we want you to know we’ve recognized the problem and are upping production of both BEE HAPPY and BEE EXCELLENT…two of TJS’ richest, most satisfying nut milks. That said, don’t be afraid to call ahead and reserve what you’re planning to pick up. Our staff at The Rose and The Hive will be more than happy to oblige….

One of the most important things about being a wholehearted company in the service industry—any industry, really—is “knowing thy audience.” And while we’re sorry to have disappointed any of you bees even for a hot minute, we’re chocking it up to growing pains and better learning the fine art of supply and demand. Thanks for sticking by us and for coming back, even if you didn’t get what you wanted when you wanted it. We aim to please and we’ll always strive to be better so that you may live your healthiest, WHealthiest lives.

Wrap Your Lips Around ‘Bee Kind’

August 4, 2015 By Jen Chase

Limited-edition, sweet-and-spicy recipe is soon-to-be a fan fave. (Who are we kidding? We’re hearing it already is!)

Shhh: Can you hear it? The trumpets? Angels? (Or is it a gaggle of cutie men with high-pitched voices? Unsure.) It’s not in your head, Bees. It’s the netherworld heralding the arrival of our beeautiful, newbee flavor, limited-edition BEE KIND.

Have you ever sipped a Singleton and thought, Hells Bells! How DO they come up with these boss recipes? Sometimes we look at common ailments to see what we can alleviate; but most of the time, recipes are driven by the availability of organic produce (that, and our pairing what we think would taste good together, of course).

Well with BEE KIND, the presenting sitch was a little different.

You’ve heard TJS say, “If it’s not organic, we won’t press it,” but we also won’t press produce unless it’s beyond delicious. And pineapple right now? It’s pretty ick. Since it’s the main squeeze in BEE GRATEFUL—and since we’re in the throes of prime-time watermelon season, yo—we took a hard look at the menu’s seasonality, paused BEE GRATEFUL until the pine is sublime, and decided to birth a new juice.

Enter BEE KIND.Bee-Kind

With sweet heat from a carrot-watermelon-apple-ginger-lemon combo that will keep you sippa-sip-sipping, you’ll actually bee grateful that pineapple needs a time out. Plus, the health bennies of this rosy beauty are boundless:

🙌  carrot’s beta carotene fights heart disease, ocular degeneration and cancer;

🍉  watermelon’s lycopene is a prostate cancer preventative and helps reduce depression and oxidative stress on the brain which can lead to neurological disorders. (Plus, it’s a diuretic and helps reduce belly bloat, too.);

🍎  apple’s Quercetin is a carb-digestion aid;

🙌  ginger reduces air and inflammation in the gassiest of tummies; and

🍋 lemon is extremely alkalizing, and excellent for your digestion and skin.

Ever cried from something delicious? Grab a Singleton of BEE KIND and a hanky and brace yourself.

August 4, 2015 By Jen Chase

Re-Live A Rosey Opening

June 30, 2015 By Jen Chase

We weren’t exactly shy about our opening a second store, so though it may not be news to you, if you didn’t hit the opening of our Henderson addy (affectionately called “The Rose”), here’s a little re-cap of the night’s events. 

We’re sure everyone says this about their parties, but for us, The Rose’s grand opening  really was a night! It was a night to remember that even though something takes tons of planning, perseverance and positivity, it doesn’t mean for a minute that the reward isn’t worth the sweat that went into it.
Rose-Opening-Inside-Square-1  Rose-Opening-Inside-Square-2  Rose-Opening-Inside-Square-3
Before March 2014—for a few years leading up to what we’ve built today, actually—we were squeezing out ideas, gathering data and surrounding ourselves with people smarter than us (think Franklin Roosevelt’s “Brain Trust”…the juice version!). Back then, few would’ve done cartwheels to hear we wanted to open a second location only 14 months after our first. But we did it, and couldn’t be happier.

So take a look at these beeautiful pics of the beeautiful bees who came out to support us. The sangria was sipped, the Champs was poured, music played, and juice shots were aplenty. We were thrilled that so many people joined us for what turned out to be one sweet, juicy celebration!

A Book And A Pack: A Patriotic Giveaway

June 30, 2015 By Jen Chase

You know how when you read something you love, sometimes you want others to love it, too? The Juice Standard is giving back to the community this July 4 by giving out a specialty freebie that will help you bees think…while you drink. Read on.

If you follow our Facebook or Instagram posts around holidays with something to do with freedom, you might’ve sensed that The Juice Standard (TJS) would bleed red, white and blue if we cut her open. Probably blue-green algae, actually, since we’re a juicery and all. We just love this country and what it stands for.

So far this year we’ve reflected our patriotism in our “funanthropy” when we handed out juice at our local fire and police station on Memorial Day, and in May, when we collected your generously donated dollars from glass Singleton returns for the Wounded Warrior Project. And with July 4 being the momma of U.S. freedom-ringing holidays, TJS co-founder Jamie Stephenson wanted to (literally) spread the word of one of her favorite authors, Eric Greitens. Particularly, his book Resilience.
Resilience Book Cover

Resilience is Greitens story of being a Navy SEAL and using his experience to help teach others that hardship isn’t something one “bounces back” from, but is something that everyone can learn to move through and navigate. Not unlike many Buddhist teachings that advocate leaning into our pain as much as we embrace our happy, in the wise words on Greitens’ website, “…there is a path through pain to wisdom, through suffering to strength, and through fear to courage, if we have the virtue of resilience.”

You know how when you read something you love, sometimes you want others to love it, too? Jamie’s wholehearted passion for Greitens’ work means that from July 1-5 (but not the 4th because TJS is closed that day), the first 100 bees who purchase a Singleton Six-Pack—your choice of any six juices or nut milks—will receive a free copy of Resilience that has been personally signed by Greitens, courtesy of The Juice Standard.
IMG_1718

The book retails for $17-$26, but if you’re already a Greitens groupie, his John Hancock on the inside cover is beyond worth. We encourage you to read it yourself but also hope you’ll consider picking up a six-pack and paying the book forward to someone in your world who you think will appreciate it.

Our road to WHealth and glowing self should edge a little beeyond our individual selves, don’t you think? We hope you’ll take advantage of this treat. And remember: #ItTakesAHive.

New Menu+ Remedies=TJS Helping You

June 13, 2015 By Jen Chase

Our menu’s new “juice remedies” and their easy-peasy codes are helping bees relieve (almost) anything life throws at us.

“C’mon, Life! Show us what you’ve got! Give us your germs, your fatigue and your post-workout aches. Give us your hangry-ass pangs, your sniffly allergy noses and the feeling that you might—just might—be getting and early visit from Aunt Flow.”

So that’s basically what our new menu would say if it could talk as it wagged a finger at all the health drama that tries to hold us back. Because along with a pretty big pair of sassy pants our newly designed menus are sporting a cheat sheet that beeautifully hollas out which TJS juices are good for what. Just pick up a menu and flip it to the back. On the far right there’s a handy list with an even handier, color-coded, acronym-filled key giving you at-a-glance access to what each TJS juice can help alleviate.

Here's a snapshot of our new menu. We hope our thoughtful 'Juice Remedies' help lead you toward your very best selves, no matter how you feel.

TJS’ “Juice Remedies.” We hope our thoughtful ‘Juice Remedies’ help lead you toward your very best selves, no matter how you feel.

Full disclosure, here: As it is for other juiceries and throughout some alternative-therapy industries—think essential oils, herbs or adaptogenics—TJS can’t claim that cold-pressed juice will full-on heal you (even though we cheekily say on our menu disclaimers that we know it often can!). But we can say that TJS-suggested remedies may (ahem) alleviate what ails you. And that’s what our little key points out.

So: If you’re feeling a little ick and want to, well, not, pick up a menu and chat up one of the wholehearted staffers behind the counter at The Hive or The Rose. They’ll help you not only navigate what tastes fantabulously good, but will point out what’s fantabulously good for your body in the areas of…

  • Immunity Boosting (IB)
  • Allergy Relief (A)
  • Meal Replacement (MR)
  • Post Workout (PW)
  • Extra Energy (EE)
  • Everyday Nutrition (EN)
  • Menstrual Relief (M)
  • Skin Glow (G)
  • Stress Reduction (SR)

Bee Chill Is A Special Summer Sipper

June 2, 2015 By Jen Chase

Eating seasonable is just plain reasonable…and this is one TJS special that will keep your summer sipping interesting. 

We love consistency just like the next bee, but part of the joy of sourcing The Juice Standard’s organic produce, nuts, grains and seeds (from as many local purveyors as we can) is that we get to weave flavors in an out of our menu as the season allows. And for summer, that means one of our favorites is back in the rotation.

WHAT: Bee Chill

This beeautiful juice isn't just delicious...it even looks pretty in the bottle!

This beeautiful juice isn’t just delicious…it even looks pretty in the bottle!

WHY: Packed with super-hydrating watermelon, cooling cucumber and alkalizing lemon that helps undo some of the acidic hurt we suffer from digesting processed foods, not only does Bee Chill help keep your insides clean but it’s the antidote to heat no matter where you live. How? Bee Chill’s main ingredient is watermelon…and if all you ever thought was that this quintessential picnic add-on was just a go-to portable fruit, watermelon has some unsung health bennies:

We bee grateful for orgs like OrganicFacts.net that help keep us juice-u-cated about the produce we freaking love to press!

We bee grateful for orgs like OrganicFacts.net that help keep us juice-u-cated about the produce we freaking love to press!

  • It’s low in sugar (so it’s good for diabetics); 

 

  • It flushes out kidneys (which helps keep them in good health); and,

 

  • It has decent amount of vitamins and minerals that make it a sweet treat that’s actually good for you.

 

HEALTHY THINKING BEYOND THE BOTTLE: If you haven’t already, something you’ll notice when you start replacing processed sugars or other foods with tasty bits from Mother Nature (like watermelon) is that your body will start craving the new tastes…but if you’re smart, it won’t just be your body that does the craving!

TJS COO and Co-Founder Marcella Williams-Melnichuk has had her kids on a healthy diet for so long that when they were littletons, they thought of dates as candy! Our point? With enough exposure, drinks like Bee Chill and others in the TJS repertoire can taste just as good as that craptastic carbonated canned stuff we thought was a treat when we were kids. So when you can, see what you can swap out of your everyday repertoire and swap in from ours. From hardcore organic green juice to more newbee flavors with natural sweetness from organic carrot and apple (and even honey and spices in our nut milks), there’s something for everyone with an open mind and an open mouth.

(And seriously: Just THINK what our health would be like today if one of the most iconic ads in all of ad-dom featured colorful, juice-filled bottles?)

We really think we can change our drinking habits a bottle at a time. Don’t you?

Evolution’s Announcement, HPP (Or Not) And You

April 21, 2015 By Jen Chase

HPP ain’t the way to bee (for The Juice Standard) but many juiceries use the process. We don’t judge…but we do have opinions. Read below and decide for yourself what’s best for your WHealth™.

True: All that cucumbery goodness would keep in an HPP bottle for up to six weeks, but where’s the honest-to-goodness freshness in that? We don’t judge companies that use HPP…but we won’t.

Did you see today’s news about how Evolution Fresh (makers of cold-pressed juices and smoothies) is adding a bevvy of fruit and veggie juices to its already gargantuan lineup? (It’s not long. You can read it here.) This spring, five new flavors of its cold-pressed juice—plus a current flavor already in its repertoire—will join Evolution’s 42 others…but they’ll be available in smaller bottles (11 ounces vs. the 15.2 ounce-bottles they make now).

As always, juicy news of any variety gives us reason for pause because there isn’t a company on the planet that doesn’t get a little antsy when someone does something different. But instead of useless hand wringing, Evolution’s announcement gives us a perfect podium for talking about something major we think sets The Juice Standard from the rest:

We’re committed to sourcing organic, and we don’t use the process called HPP.

What’s HPP, you wonder? “High pressure processing.” It’s a technique that lets juice producers extend the shelf life of their product by up to six weeks. Now, that’s rad for sales…but honestly, TJS beelieves that juice is pretty much dead by then. And since we’ve built our biz around the premise that juice should in fact be super fresh, vital, and rich with the enzymes Mother Effen Nature intended, we’d never dream of using HPP to bottle our juice. ‘Cause like our name says…we gots standards.

In our bumblebee-humblebee opinion, HPP is something to avoid. But to be fair—because around here we beelieve in karma—we get why companies use the process. There’s also plenty of lit on the Internets about why and how this process isn’t as damaging as people like us think. But we just happen to think that our way is the best way…both for our WHealth™, and yours. No disrespect to those who do it different. It’s simply not our choice.

The juicery playground is an expansive space. Lots of options out there. Our hope is simply to be a bastion of awesome information so you can make the best decisions possible. Meantime, see you as you stock up on TJS’ raw, cold-pressed, committed-to-organics, knock-your-socks-off-tasty, badass Singleton bottles at Ft. Apache, The Rose, or The Buzz over at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas.

Since We Thought It, TJS Has Come…To Henderson!

April 16, 2015 By Jen Chase

Patience may be a virtue, but as we await the soft open of our second TJS tomorrow The Hive is mindful of what got us here: positive thinking, a little movie magic and two damn smart women.

In Field Of Dreams, Cutie Kevin Costner—all corn-fed, farmery and hottt-with-three-Ts—walks through his hard-grown corn to the tune of the voices in his head, telling him if he mows his crop, builds a baseball field and hosts an ethereal game-of-all-time, he’ll raise enough dough to pay his mortgage and save his family farm.

"If you build it he will come." It's that kind of positive thinking that if used the right way can help us get through anything...even waiting for a new TJS location to open!

“If you build it he will come.” It’s that kind of positive thinking that if used the right way can help us get through anything…even waiting for a new TJS location to open!

FOD and the messages James Earl Jones delivered in his molasses voice gave us some pivotal rah-rah movie moments that speak to the American dream: work hard, believe in something bigger than you, and you’ll be rewarded. At this point in the post, hopeful happy-ending seekers (like moi) might hear The National Anthem or smell some salty Fenway Franks wafting through the screen, but we all know success ain’t that easy. I mean, it is…but it’s not. Markets crash. People lose their jobs and homes. Some get tumors and die young. Some get sick young and live long. You never know. But pragmatics aside, FOD is based on positive thinking. Toss some inspired thought with blind faith, trust, and the support of solid people around you, the only thing that can get in the way of your success is you.

Mike Dooley has made it his mission to help people change their attitude to change their lives. “Thoughts become things, so make ’em good ones.” “Spiritual accountability.” That stuff. If until now that hasn’t been your flavor of prophecy—if you’re more used to living from a place of reaction than of proactive attraction and working to create your future—I want to talk about Jamie and Marcella.

These two are soon to open The Juice Standard’s second location just 14ish months after their first, and I was thinking about the magnitude of that this morning. Almost 2 years ago I sat with them at Eat in Downtown Las Vegas to review exercises we’d done to reveal the type of ‘tude they wanted to imbue their site and social media. And I so vividly remember sitting across from them, thinking that these two are extremely young and vibrant women who could’ve used their smarts and passion for pretty much anything…yet they decided to bring organic, cold-pressed juice to the Valley because they believe in enhancing the healthy mindset of a city known for extravagance.

That’s not bullshit, Bees. These two are in it to win it…for you. They beelieve in their product, and they beelieve in it because they want to bring it to you. Swear.

All said, J & M didn’t know how Las Vegas would react to The Juice Standard. But they hoped people would embrace the idea of healing the body with what’s put in it, not what meds it’s prescribed. They hoped people would go all in with the “your health is your WHealth” thing and start acting like one’s WHealth is their greatest asset. Hell, bennies aside, they even hoped people would chug TJS juice because it tastes so freaking good. And in its first year, TJS made it.

Have there been setbacks? Youbetcha. Way more places sell juice today than a few years ago, so there’s that. When you’re committed to seasonality, menus have to change when ingredients ebb and flow from availability. All organic, all-the-time takes deep dedication when it would be a lot cheaper easier to use conventional produce. And (sigh of all sighs) as of this writing they’re awaiting a soft open on Saturday 18 April after waitingandwaitingandwaiting for months for their beeautiful buildout to finish! But, Marcella’s and Jamie’s positive thinking and commitment to their honest, authentic desires brought not only success on Ft. Apache (we proudly earned “Best Of Las Vegas” accolades by the Review-Journal!)…starting tomorrow it’s bringing a second location.

“If you build it, he will come.” Positive thinking, blahblahblah. Sounds like a container of caca when you’re in an emotional sinkhole. But for believers, positive thinking is a life preserver for the soul. I’m making this up here, but let’s go ahead and call it a soul preserver. Because in your sacred ring of positivity, you’ll bob up and down through whatever shit you’re wading, and though it won’t be the only thing that saves you, you’ll stay just enough buoyant to float, be seen, and grasp something that will.

Soul preserver. Seriously…just made that up. I like it.

Now go get some juice tomorrow at our brand-spanking-new location Jamie and Marcella are calling “The Rose” (2530 St. Rose Pkwy., Henderson, NV 89074). And as we await that soft open, my gentle hope for you today—and the hope from the rest of The Hive!—is that whether you’re drinking TJS juice or not, make some time to nourish your bod in a way that makes you happy, and do a little day dreamin’ about the good stuff you can work toward attracting to your life. Sit quietly. Breathe. Visualize a moment or a sitch from your life as you’d like it played out like a cut scene from FOD (starring you!) streaming in your head. Because in the slightly more spicy words of the righteous Mike Dooley, thinker of all-things positive: “If thoughts become things, make ’em effing good ones.”

You go, Wayne.

You go, Wayne.
