Red Beet Juice

Servings 4
Ingredients
- 3 medium (400 g) beetroots cut into chunks
- 3 medium (400 g) carrots chopped
- 3 oranges peeled and sliced
- 175 g celery stalks chopped (about 1 3/4 cup)
- 75 g ginger root (2 knobs)
- 1-2 limes or 1/2 lemon
- 2 apples chopped (optional)
Instructions
- You can watch the video in the post for visual instructions.Wash/scrub the beets, carrots, celery, and ginger. I peeled the oranges and limes but didn't peel the other produce. If you use organic produce, you can leave the peel on, but feel free to peel it if you prefer.
- Cut everything into small chunks, so that they are small enough for your juicer.
- I started juicing the oranges and limes, followed by the celery, ginger, beets, and finally, the carrots.
- Stir well and enjoy. I would recommend also juicing 2 apples if you are new to juicing. The drink is quite powerful due to the ginger and not very sweet. The recipe makes about 1 liter (4 1/2 cups). Divide it into 4-8 servings and store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days. You can also fill the juice into small bottles and enjoy one shot of juice every few hours, for example when you have a cold.
Notes
- Beets can make your urine and bowel movements slightly red, which is totally normal though!
- When dealing with beetroot, it can have the tendency to stain everything - your skin and chopping board included, so be careful.
- I am using the H200 juicer from Hurom. You can get a 10% discount if you use my code Ela10.
