Is there a veggie drink similar to v8 but not tomato based?

Question

I recently found out I have a severe allergy to tomatoes (yes, it developed overnight...literally, yes, that happens often, no, the doctors don't know why...it just did). The problem is I'm not usually very good about getting all the fruits and veggies I need throughout the day. I used to balance that by drinking some of the v8 line drinks (splash and fusion as well as regular v8) but all of them are tomato based and I can't touch them now. Does anyone know of any alternatives that can give the same portions of veggies (without having chunks of stuff in it...it's a texture thing) that isn't tomato based? I've been looking at the local grocery and specialty stores but I've only been able to find v8 and products like it. I could really use some help. Thanks for your suggestions.

Update:

Fusion had tomatoes listed in the ingredients. Even if it isn't tomato based, even the smallest amount causes a reaction...it makes me super sad, let me tell ya. lol

Thanks for the help. I think I will go back to making my own smoothies.

Smoothies are a great way of consuming the daily recommended portions of fruit and vegetables. You can mix up bland veggies with fruit and yogurt, in your blender at home. That way it's healthier than commercial smoothies.

i thought v8 fusion was carrot-juice based?

I would try organic food stores.  Also, if you can't find anything you might just have to get a blender and start making smoothies.

the only thing i know is to just do all of the juicing at home and then store some for later.
