Making Your Juice Taste Great
Making your juices taste good is easy to do once you get a basic
juice formula down that you like. My personal favorite combination for a
juice base is apple, lemon, and ginger. The apple sweetens it all up a
bit, the lemon really cuts out the
bitter taste of the greens, and ginger gives it a delicious little kick.
Then I usually add cucumber to dilute the taste a little bit. Cucumbers
are so full of water they end up producing a lot of neutral tasting
juice.
Great options to add to this base are: celery, carrots, dark
leafy greens, parsley or cilantro, bell peppers, squash, cabbage, beets,
or any other vegetable or green that looks interesting to you at the
store. This is a great way to get all the benefits of juicing in a great
tasting elixir!
Of course if you are making a fruit juice, it is easy to make it
taste good. It is a good idea to dilute any fruit juice you make with
water about 50/50 to cut down on the amount of sugar you are consuming.
Since the fiber is juiced out, there is nothing there to slow down the
absorption of those sugars into your bloodstream.
