Prep Time15 minutes
Total Time15 minutes
Course: Breakfast
Servings: 2 of each juice

Ingredients

Beet Juice

  • 2 beets peeled
  • 1 cup chopped carrots NOT baby carrots
  • 1 cup chopped celery
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 1 Empire apple

Green Juice

  • 1 cup chopped romaine lettuce
  • 1 cup chopped kale
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 1 Empire apple
  • 1 inch piece of ginger root

Instructions

  • In a blender (you can use a Magic Bullet for a single serving but use half of the above), blend all of the above ingredients for each juice with about a half cup of water until smooth.
  • There will be a lot of pulp, so using a fine mesh sieve or fine strainer and a bowl underneath to catch the juice, strain the pulp from each juice. You may have to get your hands dirty and squeeze the juice from the pulp itself--there will be a lot of it!
  • My recommendation is to leave some of the pulp in, but to strain most of it. You will most likely have to double strain each juice. Tip: you can always add some more water to assist in straining.
  • Juice will be concentrated, so add to a large glass of ice cubes. As the ice cubes melt in the juice, it will become less concentrated and more enjoyable to drink the cooler the juice gets.
  • Keep in fridge up to 2 days.
