Definition of Ravishing – unusually attractive, pleasing, or striking. I couldn’t think of a better word to describe this juice. It’s very attractive in color, pleasing to the eye, and striking to your system. This is a perfect juice for the morning – The beets go straight to the blood to do some serious cleansing work to help your body to fight off a myriad of ailments and diseases like cancer, chronic fatigue, colds, eczema, gallstones, high blood pressure, psoriasis and asthma.
I usually like to throw extra greens like kale or parsley in the mix to cut the sweetness – but if you like extra sweet juice, you can leave them out.
This juice also has carrot juice. Back when I started juicing with carrots – my eye lashes started getting longer and my eyes became brighter. True Story. I love Juicing. It’s here to stay.

Do your juicing recipes like this one work in a blender? I don’t have a juicer but I have a nice blender.
yes i did it with a blender, just added a little water and then used a nuts bag to drain everything!
Hi Vani i will love to loose some weight and get some of my energy back I saw your mom looks great please help. I am ready to start any time.
Is it ok to drink this every day? I know that beets are a super cleanser and have heard of people getting ill from drinking to many beets. This is my favorite of your juices – I have become a super fan of juicing!
Yes it’s ok to drink everyday, as long as you aren’t drinking more than 1 beet. They are super cleansing and can cause flu like symptoms if you are detoxing, but it’s not harmful.
Is it ok if I use this with a vitamix blender? Add filtered water for similar consistency or will the amounts need to be changed? I love the recipes for juices so far, especially if I can get my 4 year old boy to drink it.
This recipe is strictly for a juicer… however you could blend it using a vitamin and strain it using a cheese cloth. If you do that, make sure you drink it right away. Good Luck!
Is the point of straining it for texture purposes only if using a vitamix?
Maybe this is a silly question, but can you freeze your juices? Thanks! LOVE your site!!
Do you peel the ginger before using it and do you you consume both servings in the 12 hour period or share with your husband? Could you provide some basic tips about prepping the fruits and vegetables before juicing? i.e. if it doens’t say anything other than the fruit or vegetable does that mean you wash it and use it? Thanks!
Hi! Love your site! So happy I found it! Wanted to know if you could recommend a juicer. I haven’t started yet, and think I would use it a couple of times a week. I’m from Canada.
Thanks!

new to the site, ready for a nutrition change and want to incorporate juicing. what juicer would u recommend, i plan on juicing at least 3times a week. I have noticed the small amount of ingrdients you juice make alot two 15oz.. do u refrigerate the other 15oz.. how often are you adding flax seed?
Hi, I stumbled across your site when looking for smoothie recipes. The recipes look great and in addition to buying a new blender (mine is 35 years old!) I want to put a juicer on my wedding registry. What blender and juicer do you recommend? I have a small kitchen and would like to preserve space, but I also want a high quality product (preferably under 300 dollars).
This is quickly becoming one of my favorite juice recipes. I’ve found my stomach can only handle 1/2 a beet juiced per day, so the two servings is perfect
Just curious. Why is it important to juice the ingredients in a certain order? Thanks!
love your juicing recipes. i started my whole family on then (me, hubby, 2 kids, and nana/nani) and everyone can’t go a day without them! even more life changing than becoming vegan or eating only organic whole foods. all of a sudden we have so much energy! thanks for your blog.
Thank you for the recipe. I want to have more juicing ideas and suggestions .
I’ve been juicing for about 3 months and have never previously seen reference to the order in which the produce should be juiced. Can you elaborate on that? I do have my own order, but it’s based on the functionality of my juicer. What is your reasoning? Thanks, love your site and your mission!
I made this tonight and it was very good! Thanks for sharing. I also would like to see more juicing recipes.
I just tried this today. It was a little bit bland for me so I added about a fourth lemon to it and it was perfect! Have you tried this?

Just tried this and love it . I put a little less ginger to start and little greens in also. New to juicing and going to try the Cabbage Patch one next. Thank you !
Hi, I LOVE this site! How many calories are in one serving of this juice? Thanks!
Do you have to core the apples? I’ve been juicing for a while and I always juice the entire apple. Should I not? Thanks!
I like to core them because there is a tiny bit of naturally occurring cyanide in apples seeds.
I love the red color the beets give this. I’ve never really liked beets by themselves but including them in juice is wonderful since you get natural sugars and the great color. When I’ve included beets, I usually keep the stems out but might try to include them next time. I also like to include a bit more ginger as I love the taste. Thanks!
