Learning How To Juice is not as hard as you think. The first question I think most people struggle with is where do I start? There is nothing like taking a whole bunch of vegetables and fruits together only to find out what you created tastes horrible. Here are some guidelines you may want to follow to make the process a little easier.
Start off with a strong base that will give you a large amount of juice. Pineapples yield a lot of juice and their juice is sweet and blends well with vegetables or fruits.
Carrots are a great base as well, they offer tons of juice, are nutritious and mix well with a lot of items.
You should also think about what kind of juice you want. If you want a sweet juice, you want to make sure you are juicing items that will give you what you want. Know what fruits and vegetables make sweet juices (for instance, pineapple, apples, carrots, grapes, melons, usually make sweet juices), and which ones make bitter juices so that you can you can balance the juices you are making. I have found that when you start with juices that you think will work well together, you usually have a winning combination, once my base is together, then I will add other things I think might compliment it. This is something that I have tried, and I love the way it is working so far! Some of this process is trial and error.
Another trick I am using that has been working out well is starting off with safe tastes and then adding vegetables slowly to make it more nutritious.
Here are a couple of tricks to remember. You need to make sure you have at least one and maybe even two items in your list that have a nice amount of juice, in this case it was the orange and the pineapple.
Happy Juicing…..
The yield on this is about 8-10oz. (2 servings)
2 hearty shards of pineapple,
2 handfuls spinach,
1/2 orange,
1 inch long piece of tumeric – Mine
If you want to spice it up a little…add some sparkling water. It will turn your juice into a juice spritzer, without adding any additional calories.
My kids love pineapple so we will have to try this at home!
Please do and let me know what you think!
Looks yummy! Except, what is tumeric?
Thanks Carrie! Tumeric is a very nutritious spice. It has amazing health benefits. Check it out!
Turmeric is a great spice. It fights all kinds of free radicals, it is incredibly helpful for your body and has tons of health benefits. It looks a little like ginger.
Looks yummy I love new idea for my nutribullet
Give it a try and tell me what you think!
Yes I will be posting tons of these over the next couple of days! So look out! 😎
I am one of those scared to juice people you talked about. Maybe this will give me some courage!
I hope you will I think it’s all about what you use and how you use it.
I love juicing and it is really worth the time and effort.
Juicing really is great, I have been on the fence for a while but I love it.
I need to work on juicing. I tried it with carrot juice once with my Blendtec and loved the result.
Nice I hear Blendtec are nice
I love, love it, try again it’s a great practice.
