Green Lemonade

Carrot and celery juice is a classic pressed vegetable juice loved by all. This is a great fresh pressed juice to start off your “juicing until dinner,” cleansing day.

Don’t be afraid of the vegetables
Don’t be afraid of the vegetables, or the beautiful orange color. It’s a great juice to start with if you’re just getting into juicing. Picky eaters, husbands, finicky roommates and even kids love it.

For new juicers I recommend using one part celery juice (~4-6 ounces) to two parts or more of the carrot juice (~10 ounces) to get started. Adventurous juicers could consider switching the ratio of carrot and celery juice, with celery juice dominant. Carrot and celery juice is fabulous for mental clarity. I also love to add ½ inch to 1 inch of ginger. Start modestly with the ginger though and try ½ inch first, I think you’ll like the taste.

Don’t have a juicer? Don’t worry!
If you don’t have a juicer, find a juice bar near you and give this classic carrot and celery juice a try. Just don’t cheat yourself, and make sure to put some celery in there too.
