Description
A refreshing and nutritious juice made with beets, grapes, cucumber, and lemon.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 raw red or purple beets, scrubbed well with tops and ends removed
- 1 cup purple grapes
- 1 cucumber
- ½ lemon, peeled
- 1 cup water (if using a blender to make the juice)
Instructions
- Cut the produce into large pieces that will fit through the feeding tube of a juicer. If you will be using a blender to make your juice, then cut your produce into smaller pieces than if you are using a juicer.
- Then run the vegetable and fruit pieces through the juicer, alternating the soft and hard textured pieces. Collect the juice in a pitcher and serve immediately.
- Add the beets, grapes, cucumber, lemon, and water to the base. Blend or process on high for 20-30 seconds, or until the mixture is smooth.
- Then, pour the blended juice through a nut milk bag, squeezing it from the top down to drain the juice into a pitcher. Discard the collected pulp, or save it and use it for another purpose.
- Serve the juice immediately.
Notes
- Juice is best enjoyed fresh.
- If desired, adjust sweetness by adding honey or another sweetener.
