Vie’s Homemade Liver-Cleanse Beetroot Juice
Making homemade beetroot juice is a simple and refreshing way to incorporate this liver-cleansing beverage into your morning routine. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you make your own beetroot juice at home:
Ingredients
2 medium-sized beetroots
1-2 cups of water
Optional: lemon juice or ginger for added flavor
Steps
Wash and peel the beetroots: Start by washing the beetroots thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt or debris. Then, using a vegetable peeler, peel off the outer skin of the beetroots.
Chop the beetroots: Cut the peeled beetroots into small, manageable pieces. This will make it easier to blend or juice them.
Blend or juice the beetroots: There are two methods you can choose from:
Blender Method: Place the chopped beetroots into a blender along with 1-2 cups of water. Blend until smooth and well combined. You can strain the juice through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove any pulp.
Juicer Method: If you have a juicer, feed the chopped beetroots through the juicer according to the manufacturer's instructions. Collect the juice in a container.
Optional: Add flavorings: If you'd like to enhance the flavor of your beetroot juice, you can add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice or a small piece of ginger to the blender or juicer. This will give your juice a tangy or spicy kick, respectively.
Serve and enjoy: Pour the freshly made beetroot juice into a glass and serve it immediately. You can also refrigerate it for a few hours to chill before enjoying it. Remember to stir the juice well before drinking, as natural separation may occur.
