Juicing Recipes - Recipes, Guides, and Everything Juicing (2024)

Juicing recipes are a combination of ingredients used in a juice fast, juice cleanse, or juice detox. There are so many juicing recipes that the list could go on forever. I’ve decided to put a few of the JustOnJuice favorites and fan favorites here on this page for all to try out. Here are a few things to consider when trying out or coming up with your own juicing recipes.

Juicing Recipes – Substitutions

In juicing recipes, it’s okay to substitute certain fruits or vegetables. You may be allergic to one of the ingredients, or you may dislike some of the stronger flavors. You can always substitute juicing recipe ingredients with many other highly nutritious fruits, vegetables, or spices. Here you can find a list of some of the best substitution ideas: Juicing Substitutions

Exact Amounts in Juicing Recipes

You don’t have to follow juicing recipes exactly as they are written. If something calls for 8 spinach leaves and you use 10 it’s not going to harm the balance of your juice recipe. You can adjust the quantities and mixtures for any juice recipes. Some recipes may be heavy on the veggies, its okay to use a half of a lemon instead of just a quarter. Feel free to experiment with ingredients to get the tastes where you want them. Nothing is exact when it comes to juicing recipes.

Nutrition in Juicing Recipes

Juicing recipes are packed and loaded with so many nutrients, vitamins, and minerals. It’s not important to try and count calories in these recipes but it is important to watch your sugar intake. You don’t want to use too much fruit as they contain a great amount of sugar. The best way to keep your recipes on the sugar low is to make sure your juice recipes consist of about 80% vegetables and only 20% fruits. This will ensure you aren’t taking in too much sugar while still getting a ton of nutrition!

How Much Should a Juicing Recipe Contain?

Juicing recipes should contain anywhere from 14-20 ounces of juice by the time you are finished juicing all the ingredients. I always like to juice something like a cucumber last. This way I can ensure I don’t add too much and I can always use more if I find my juices are falling short on quantity. As far as produce and ingredients, it’s a good idea to use a wide variety of them. My typical juicing recipes contain 5 or more different ingredients to ensure I’m getting a good mixture of nutrition in each and every juice I consume.

What Ingredients Should Juicing Recipes Have?

Besides using a variety of ingredients in your juicing recipes, it’s important to make sure your juice always contains a few certain things. Protein is something you should have in every juice! You can get protein from Spinach, Kale, Broccoli, Brussels Sprouts, Romaine Lettuce, and a few other greens. Protein is important to have not only in your juicing recipes but also in your everyday diet. In fact, hair and nails are mostly made of protein. Your body uses it to build and repair tissue. You need it to make enzymes, hormones, and other body chemicals. It is an important building block of bones, muscles, cartilage, skin, and blood.

Besides protein, juicing recipes should include a healthy balance of other key vitamins which can be found in other ingredients such as apples, lemons, ginger, strawberries, celery, cucumber, and many other leafy greens, fruits, or vegetables.

Juicing Recipes

Mean Green Juice Recipe

This juice recipe is one of my favorites. It’s my go to juice recipe and the one I use the most. It has a very healthy array of vitamins, minerals, and nutrients that make it one of the most well rounded recipe here at JustOnJuice! You can enjoy it any time; breakfast, lunch, dinner, or as a healthy nutritious drink anytime throughout the day.

Green Giant Juice Recipe

This recipe is a site favorite in not only taste, but nutrition too. I prefer to drink this juice in the morning or for lunch. The Green Giant is high in protein coming in at 16 grams making it an excellent choice to drink if you are working out. The flavor this juice packs is very satisfying! It’s a juice you will come to love and include in your everyday routine!

Purple Power Juice Recipe

The Purple Power is one of my favorite juices for lunch or dinner. It’s packed with nutrients and has a very fresh aroma and tempting color! Try this one if you are looking for a very healthy juice but want something other than the normal green juice.

Hulk Juice Recipe

This juice recipe is another JustOnJuice fan favorite due to its taste and the energy that it gives you throughout the day. It gets its name from the vibrant green color of the juice resembling The Hulk. Actually, my son came up with the name as even he enjoys it! This juice is sure to get you up and moving regardless of how your day is going. I tend to enjoy this one all throughout the day but especially any time after breakfast.

Shock Top Juice Recipe

The Shock Top juice will in fact blow your top off with its unique flavor and tempting visual appearance. This is one I tend to drink throughout the day but enjoy most in the morning. It has more sugar than some of the other juices but that’s okay. If you love green juice but aren’t into the green part, then this is the juice for you! Enjoy!
