Key Ingredients
- Green apple: My go-to sweetener for green juice! It’s affordable and adds a touch of sweetness that nicely balances out the earthier flavors of the greens.
- Parsley: Makes this super green. It does have a strong flavor, so a small amount goes a long way.
- Spinach: Packed with iron, spinach is my top choice for juicing because it’s readily available and budget-friendly. Its mild flavor blends well with other fruits and vegetables.
- Cucumber: I love adding cucumber to my juice recipes since it is super hydrating and refreshing. I love using thin-skinned varieties like English cucumbers for juicing.
- Lemons: Fresh lemon adds a refreshing flavor to green juices. Plus, the vitamin C in lemons can help your body absorb the iron from greens like spinach.
- Ginger: Fresh ginger is a fantastic addition to juices! I love the spice; it’s anti-inflammatory and can promote healthy digestion. There’s no need to peel, just scrub, slice, and add to your juicer. I also use fresh ginger to make my favorite ginger shots!
