Recipe Tips and Variations

Here are some ways to tweak the juice to your liking and get the best possible flavour:

Use a blender instead of a juicer: If you don’t own a juicer, blend everything with water and strain through a fine mesh sieve or nut milk bag.
Add extra greens: Incorporate some spinach or parsley for more greens.
Boost hydration: Replace part of the water content with coconut water for natural electrolytes and a tropical twist.
Make it spicier or milder: Add more ginger for extra heat or reduce it for a softer flavour.
Serve chilled: Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before drinking for the most refreshing taste.
