1. Carrot – Lemon Juice:


Carrots are tasty and replete with beta carotene that is good for your eyes and skin. Their slightly sweet taste makes them ideal for juicing. Adding lemon to it not only enhances the taste, but your body gets Vitamin C too. You should peel the carrot well before juicing. This helps remove the earthy taste. For 1 glass of carrot juice, put the juice of half a lemon.
How To Make:
  1. Grate or chop carrots after washing and peeling the outer skin.
  2. Blend the carrots with sufficient water to create a juice like consistency.
  3. Squeeze in the juice of half a lemon and mix.
  4. Refrigerate before serving.
  5. Garnish with a stalk of celery or mint.
It is better if you consume the juice without adding sugar or any sweetener. If you have a sweet tooth, pour a few drops of honey into it.

2. Cabbage Juice:


Cabbage is a widely used vegetable in many households. It is used for making salads and a number of side dishes and soups. However, it can also be used to make nutritious juice at home. It is better if you can use red cabbage. It is said to be replete with nutrients and fends off dementia.
How To Make:
  1. Simply grate the cabbage and blend with water in a juicer.
  2. Refrigerate and serve.
If drinking cabbage juice seems uninteresting or bland, you can blend cabbage leaves with carrot and make the juice. You may add some grated ginger, salt and pepper to the juice to add to the flavor.

3. Cucumber-Ginger Juice:


At times, you need to detoxify your body, more so after a round of heavy partying or eating out at vacations. For this purpose, you can try the ginger-cucumber detox juice. Cucumbers contain lots of water and so they aid in flushing the toxic material from the body. Ginger works as a decongestant.
Apart from cucumber and ginger, you will also need a lemon and some cayenne pepper.
How To Make:
  1. Peel the cucumber and lemon first. Add the grated ginger and some cayenne pepper in the juicer.
  2. Pour in water and mix well. You may also pour in some parsley leaves.
  3. Blend together and garnish with mint.

  3. Add a stalk of celery and pour some water.
  4. Blend the ingredients together and sprinkle some pepper powder and serve.
  5. You may also add a few drops of lemon juice to enhance the taste.
  6. You should use small sized beetroots as they are sweeter.

5. Spinach-Cucumber Juice With Celery:


If you think healthy and tasty juices can be made mostly with fruits, you are far from the truth. With simple vegetables like celery and cucumber, you can make yummy juices at home.
