When beetroots are in season, this is one of my favourite juices. If you can find purple kale leaves they work brilliantly in this. The key with juicing is to keep your colours within the same family (eg in this instance, purple). Otherwise, you’ll end up with brown juice – not too appealing.
If you can’t find purple kale, then green kale will work just as well (the beetroot will overpower the green colour), or just skip that ingredient and use the rest. The ginger and lemon give this a wonderful warming kick too.
Ingredients
- 1 beetroot
- 4 purple kale leaves
- 1 carrot
- 1 apple
- 1/4 lemon (skin removed)
- 1-2 cm ginger
- 1 c water
Instructions
- Chop your ingredients into small pieces and feed them into your slow juicer, then add the water at the end to push through the remaining produce.
- Add ice then drink straight away, or put in a sealed jar filled to the top, and drink within 24 hours.
Equipment
- Juicer
Recipe Notes
- You can also use 1/2 a lime in place of the lemon.

Absolutely love this recipe! Have been making it lots since I found purple kale and raw beets at a local farmers' market and it is such a pick-me up. Am in last month of pregnancy and it has given me such glowing skin and a real energy boost! Thanks! -
Buffy Ellen Hi Valentina, Oh i'm so pleased, it's reminding me to make it again - it's been a while! Hope your pregnancy all well went? You are no doubt glowing now even more. Kindest, Buffy
