How to make a Ginger Jolt Energy Juice

This juice recipe is designed to give your energy levels a natural boost.

Ginger promotes healthy circulation, watercress is packed with essential vitamins and minerals to support energy production, and grapefruit delivers a refreshing dose of antioxidants and vitamin C. Vitamin C aids in energy metabolism by helping synthesize carnitine, a compound that turns fat into energy.

Drinking this juice regularly can help fight fatigue, improve focus and concentration, and enhance overall vitality.

Ingredients

  • 20g Watercress (or rocket substitute)

  • 5 cm Ginger

  • 2 Pear

  • 2 Grapefruit, yellow

Preparation

Ginger

  • Wash and dry

  • Cut into thin pieces the size of your thumbnail leaving the skin on

Pear

  • Remove the hard wooden stems

  • Juice whole or cut in half if too big to fit into chute

Grapefruit

  • Remove the outer skin keeping as much white pith as possible

  • Cut in half or quarters to fit into chute

Watercress

  • Roughly chop

Cold Press Juicing Method

Start by adding all 20g of watercress to the juicer.

Next, add the pears one at a time; their firmness will help push the watercress down into the juicer.

Then, juice the grapefruit by adding pieces gradually, letting each piece press through fully before adding the next.

Finally, add the ginger to complete the juice.
