Why Make Fresh Juice?

Fresh juice has been a good option for our family because we sometimes struggle to get enough fruits and vegetables into our diet. We add juice to our diet but we also eat fruit and veggies with meals.

Another reason to make fresh juice is taste. Before I bought a juicer, I would buy store-bought juice and stop at juice bars. I tried to like them but most were flavorless–sometimes awful and overpriced.

Tip: You can make almost any fresh juice taste great with the right balance of apple and lemon.

Do You Have to Buy Organic Fruits and Vegetable To Make Fresh Juice?

There are a lot of juice enthusiasts who swear that you should only juice organic fruit and vegetables. Honestly, I buy what is on sale!

That said, I do try to take into consideration the Dirty Dozen list when buying fresh produce. The fruits and vegetables that top this list are considered to be highly coated with pesticides — yuck!

I know that apples and greens always make the list so try to buy them in the organic section.
