8 Simple Juice Recipes You Need To Try

Regardless of whether you are new to juicing, or a seasoned veteran, there are some simple juice recipes that everyone needs to have in their repertoire.  

These are those recipes that you will always fall back on because not only are they simple, but they taste great, use few ingredients and pack a health punch.

We all have our personal preferences for taste, colour and ingredients, and with these recipes I have tried to ensure that there are no unusual ingredients, or strong tastes (the closest would be beetroot!).

I would encourage you to give them all a go.  Start with the ones that instantly grab your attention and work your way through the list.

Before juicing, check out my juicing tips here for best results.  In particular make sure to wash your fruit and vegetables properly before getting started.

All recipes are enough for 1 generous serve which makes it easy to scale up for more people.

• 2 carrots
• 1 orange
• ½ inch piece fresh ginger

Peel the ginger and orange.  Remove tops and bottoms from carrots.

2. Watermelon Waterfall

So simple, but so good. Watermelon is an excellent cleanser and this juice is perfect first thing in the morning.
