Why National Green Juice Day?
Green juice is a healthy beverage that is made from the juices extracted from green vegetables. When it comes to the recipe, there are no rigid rules. You can mix and match various vegetables and find that healthy drink you desire. The most common ingredients in green juices include celery, kale, Swiss chard, wheatgrass, parsley, spinach, cucumber, and mint.
Although we have a common belief that green juices tend to taste bitter, well you don’t have to worry about that as we can pep up the taste by adding small quantities of fruits to it, which may or may not be green. This can be done to improve its sweetness and make it more enjoyable. Apples, berries, kiwi, oranges, lemons, and grapefruit are some of the fruits that you can add to improve the taste of your green juice. When life gives you lemons, try adding some to a green juice!
Homemade vs Commercial Green Juice
Homemade green juices are preferred by dedicated green juice drinkers in comparison to the commercial green juices that are available in markets. Commercial green juices often contain added sugar which can reduce the consumer’s nutrient density. Excess sugar intake can also result in adverse effects and they are pasteurized as well. Pasteurization involves heating the juice to kill harmful bacterias and increase its shelf life. This can have an adverse effect as the process can damage some of the heat-sensitive nutrients and plant compounds found in fresh fruit juices.
Drink your fruits and veggies

Fear not for you can have them without experiencing the bitterness by adding it to your green juice recipe! Green juices are a healthy alternative to soft drinks and other sugary drinks.
