Homemade Vegetable Juice Recipe
I’m a big fan of beets so it isn’t too surprising that I like this juice. My mom loathes the taste of beets. She reluctantly sampled this beet juice and said “It’s not bad”. That means this Beet Juice Recipe must be delicious!
I’ve never been into the juicing fad. I like to eat . . . as in chew food.
Also, juicers are expensive and I am cheap. Luckily my little brother scored a Jack LaLanne Juicer for 15 bucks at a garage sale. We juiced everything in site! {we are easily entertained}
Of all the juice concoctions that we made, this Beet Juice Recipe was my favorite.

If you are too cheap to buy a juicer too, no worries. I have found a few tutorials that explain how to make juice without one.

If you do own a juicer, hopefully you are more skilled at using it than I am.
My kitchen looked like a crime scene from the show Dexter after I was done making this Beet Juice. Yikes!

I made this juice with beets, beet greens, cuties, lime, apples and ginger. Since making this batch I have started adding carrots as well. The carrots add a little extra sweetness as well as nutrition.

Well, this would be another first for me. Veggies just were not my thing as a kid and I’m paying for it now. I did buy some juice for my kiddo that has beets in it. She likes it and I think it’s great.

I’m sort of in the middle on vegetables. I don’t love them or hate them. My daughter loves veggies! She requested broccoli soup for her birthday dinner and is always begging me for beets 🙂

Hi. Just wondering if you cooked the beets first or if they need to be raw?
Thanks!Reply
- Nicole Harris says
Hi Susan! I juiced the beets raw. If you are using a juicer raw should work fine. If you are blending and straining, you could partially cook the beets to make it easier to puree. Enjoy!
