These are just some recipes ideas to get your creative juices flowing (no pun intended). Honestly, when I make juice at home I don’t usually follow a recipe. I have a huge juicing book that I consult sometimes, but most of the time I’m just using whatever produce I have on hand.
Don’t be afraid to try something new! If it doesn’t taste good, just add more fruit! :)
