This is the perfect go-to recipe for a quick delicious and healthy juice recipe for digestion, mood and inflammation relief with 3 simple ingredients that include strawberries and kiwi.
- 2 Cups Strawberries
- 3 whole Kiwis
- 1 whole Apple (optional
- 1/2 whole Lemon (for flavor)
- 1 tbsp Honey, maple syrup or apple syrup (optional)
Prepare Your Ingredients: Wash the strawberries and apples thoroughly. Hull the strawberries and cut them in half. Peel the kiwis and slice them. If you're using an apple, core and cut it into wedges. Peel the half lemon if you prefer less bitterness in the juice.
Juicing: Start by juicing the strawberries in your juicer, followed by the kiwis, apple (if using), and lemon. Alternate between the softer fruits (strawberries and kiwis) and the harder ones (apples) to get the most juice out of them.
Enhance the Flavor: If you like, add a few mint leaves to the juicer or stir in some fresh mint leaves into the juice after juicing for an extra fresh taste.
Serve Immediately: Pour the juice into a glass and enjoy immediately to benefit from the most nutrients and the best taste. You can also chill it for a few minutes in the refrigerator if you prefer it cold.
