Most of the time I will eat my fruits and veggies or blend them in smoothies to keep the goodness of fibers. But once in a while I go for a homemade cold pressed juice, especially for a good detox juice. My friend Franziska had told me about this fantastic combo when we were walking in Singapore Botanic Garden and I was craving for it since then :) Don't be afraid by the beetroot which has a strong earthy flavor. In this blend it is tamed by the apple and twisted with the lemongrass. So refreshing and subtly flavored. And look at this color ! Trust me if you try it, you could get addicted :) The recipe is as simple as:
1 small raw peeled beetroot
1 medium red apple (keep the skin if organic otherwise peel it)
3 tbsp lemon juice
1 to 2 2 cm ginger bits (I love ginger but maybe try with only a small amount first)
1 to 2 lemongrass sticks (again I put 2 but start with one), use the internal par of the stick that is tender. Put everything in your cold press juicer, ensuring you put the ginger and lemongrass between the fruits to maximize their juice extraction. Enjoy (you can try and add more spices / lemon according to taste)
