One of the best things you can do after a long intercontinental flight is to detoxify and nourish your body with a nutrient-rich, delicious freshly made juice.
Locally grown organic vegetables
When you travel as much as I do, juicing becomes a ritual that includes not only the act of juicing, but especially the act of choosing perfectly ripe locally grown organic ingredients.
You might not be aware that locally grown vegetables are not always pesticide-free. You might be able to reduce your carbon footprint, but you might also be adding harmful pesticides to your system. This is not something you want to do if you want to detoxify your body. Chose organic produce whenever you can or grow your own.
Ingredients:
- 2 large apples, cored
- 4 young carrots
- 6 young beets (with leaves if possible)
- 2 celery stalks (with leaves if possible)
Method:
- Wash all the ingredients, leave the peel on. Depending on your juicer you might need to chop beets and apples into manageable chunks.
- Run all the ingredients through the juicer. Pour juice into glasses and enjoy in good company!
