Fix and swap

Didn't come out right? Fix it.

  • Too sweet

    Add more cucumber or a squeeze of lime to pull the bottle back toward crisp.

  • Too sharp

    Add a few cucumber pieces or a small apple wedge to soften the edge.

  • No daikon?

    Use jicama. Keeps yield, but shifts the base flavor.

Storage

Best for mild juices that are most enjoyable soon after pressing. For best flavor, enjoy the same day or within 24 hours. Shake gently if it separates, keep it cold, and discard questionable juice.

Serving: Citrus-forward recipes add bright flavor and vitamin C-rich produce to the glass.

Yield, prep and calorie ranges are rough planning estimates. Calories come from the recipe's produce types, not a lab test, and everything varies with produce size, ripeness and your juicer. How to use these estimates. This website provides general recipe and nutrition education only and is not medical advice. Read the disclaimer.
