Instructions

For any of the above juice varieties

Assemble all fruits and vegetables listed under the desired heading (eg add all ingredients under the green juice heading if you'd like to make the green juice recipe). Wash produce well to remove any soil, trimming the ends/leaves off of beets and carrots, and removing any apple stems or citrus peels.
Add a pitcher or container under juicer spout. With the motor running, place produce bit by bit into the feed chute of the juicer, using the food pusher to gently and slowly guide the produce down. The slower you go, the more juice you will get. I use the Breville cold press juicer linked to above this recipe card.
As fruit and veggies are processed, juice will flow into the pitcher, and the separated pulp will accumulate in the pulp container. If you'd like to make more than one juice, rinse the feed chute, filter bowl/basket and dispose of juice pulp before starting again with another juice combo.
Once juice of choice has been made in your pitcher, you should end up with approximately 600-800 mL (20-27 fl oz) of juice concentrate. Because this is a concentrate, I usually add another 4 cups of water to the pitcher and then divide the pitcher among four 16 oz glass bottles. You are welcome to divide the juice concentrate by 4 servings without adding water and enjoy that way as well.
Juice will keep up to 3 days in a sealed container in the fridge.

Notes

NOTE: Nutritional info is for 1/4 of beet juice mixture. All juices will be approximately the same calorie wise but nutritional info such as sugars may vary per juice variety. For instance, the green juice will have less sugar as beets and carrots contain more natural sugars.

Make sure to rinse and wash juicer components right after use to avoid pulp and residue from sticking. It's much easier to rinse right away than it is to try and wash later once everything is stuck onto the juicer components (filter basket/bowl, pulp container, feed chute, food pusher, etc.)

Mix and match with different ingredients until you find a combination you love.

Use the pulp to make pulp crackers, vegan pesto, in baked goods or as juice popsicles.

Store your cold pressed juice in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Add high-acidity fruits to your juice to extend its shelf life.
