Suitable For: Athletes looking for a natural stamina boost, individuals wanting to support liver detoxification, or anyone with high blood pressure looking for a heart-healthy drink.
Health Benefits: Beets are rich in nitrates, which help improve blood flow and lower blood pressure. Carrots provide a massive dose of beta-carotene for eye health. Ginger aids digestion, while the apple adds sweetness and soluble fiber to balance blood sugar absorption.
Ingredients
- Red Beet -- 1 medium (120g, scrubbed well)
- Carrots -- 2 medium (120g)
- Celery -- 3 stalks (120g)
- Green Apple -- 1 medium (180g)
- Lemon -- ½ fruit (peeled)
- Fresh Ginger -- 1 cm piece
Steps
-
Prep: Wash all produce thoroughly. Remove the greens from the beet (optional, but recommended for a smoother taste). Cut the beet, apple, and lemon into wedges that fit your juicer chute.
-
Juice: Feed the ginger and beet first, followed by the carrots, celery, lemon, and finally the apple to flush the rest of the juice through.
-
Finish: Stir the juice gently.
- Serve: Pour over a glass filled with ice cubes. Do not put ice in the juicer. Enjoy immediately for the best flavor and nutrient retention.
Tips & Variations
- Beginner Tip: If you find the earthy taste of beets too strong, peel the beet before juicing or add an extra half of an apple.
- Zest it up: Leave a little bit of the lemon peel on for extra aromatic oils, but ensure it is washed well.
Best Time to Drink
In the morning on an empty stomach for maximum absorption, or 1-2 hours before a workout as a natural pre-workout energy booster.

Taste Experience
Earthy and grounding with a surprisingly bright sweetness. The apple and carrots cut through the rich beet flavor, while the ginger and lemon provide a zesty, tart finish that makes it incredibly drinkable.
