Vitality Beet & Ginger Juice

Earth's flavor in a glass. The raw beet's 'earthy' character (caused by geosmin) is harmonized by the sweetness of carrots and the acidity of apples. This juice is a nitrate bomb, converting to nitric oxide in the body to aid circulation—a favorite among athletes.

Ingredients

Equipment Needed

  • Juicer or Slow Juicer
  • Vegetable Peeler
  • Knife

Instructions

1

Peel the beets, carrots, and ginger. Core the apple.

Tip: Although the skin has vitamins, beet skin can add a bitter aftertaste, so it's better to peel it for juice.
2

Cut the vegetables into pieces that fit your juicer's chute.

3

Feed ingredients into the juicer, alternating hard and soft items: carrot, beet, ginger, apple, lemon.

Tip: Harder vegetables help push softer ones through. Juice the lemon last to wash through the flavors.
4

Stir and drink immediately.

Tip: Oxidation begins breaking down vitamins and browning the juice within minutes.

Recipe FAQ

It tastes too earthy, how do I fix it?
Add more lemon juice or ginger. Acid and heat suppress the perception of geosmin.
