The Coolest Citrus Juice Recipes


Citrus juice recipes tend to be my favorite. When my husband and I traveled to Spain for our honeymoon, I couldn’t get over how their fresh squeezed juice was in every café. They had commercial juicers that produced the purest most amazing-tasting juice. Since then I’ve fallen in love (all over again) with just the plain glass of orange juice.

Things to note before you juice:

Citrus usually take longer to juice. If you are in a time crunch and doing this for the first time, try another type. It takes more time to prep(peeling). Believe me, though, it’s worth it!!!

Most Citrus fruits picked in the USA are picked before they are ripe, causing them to be acidic on the body. If you can, try to buy tree ripened citrus fruits!

Always peel citrus, the only exception is lemon and limes. Citrus has oils that are indigestable in the peel so it needs to be removed before juicing. I find it easier to cut the peel off instead of taking time to peel the fruit for citrus juice recipes. I cut as close to the pilth that I can, and then cut it in half so that it fits nicely in my juicer's feeding tube. No need to peel each piece!

Of course, the first recipe...

Orange Juice

5 oranges, peeled.




Leaving a lot of the white pilth is okay! Nutrients in their too. I usually cut the oranges in half for the ease of feeding into the juicing tube. Cutting the skin off with a knife is easiest. Feed it through the juicer and voila!

Too many lemons will make a bitter juice, a little goes a long way!

Lemonade


A real lemonade recipe(without white sugar)!

Everyone loves some lemon juice punch! Straight lemonade is very bitter. While it’s good, it’s much better diluted with some water and healthy sweetener of choice…

5 whole lemons
6 cups of water
¾ cups of honey or agave syrup (lighter and easier to mix- works better)


Peel or cut off the peel of the lemons. Juice them through your juicer(you could use a hand juicer too, but you won’t get as much juice out).

Pour the juice in a pitcher with the water and mix in the honey or agave syrup. Mix until well blended. I have found that a few drops of liquid stevia brings out the lemon flavor nicely and helps cut the bitterness. If you don’t want the sugar, definitely try stevia.
Voila! Real lemonade.

If you’d like a flavored version of lemonade, juice ½ cup of strawberries, blueberries or raspberries with the lemons.
