Good to know

Tips

No juicer? Blend everything with 150 ml cold water, then strain through a fine sieve, pressing on the pulp.
Nutrition is calculated from the whole fruit and vegetables; pressed juice keeps most of the sugars but loses much of the fibre.

Common mistakes

Leaving the white pith thick on the oranges, which turns the juice bitter.

Storage

Fresh juice is best within an hour; it keeps covered in the fridge for up to 24 hours but loses colour and vitamin C.

Variations

With turmeric: Add a small piece of fresh turmeric root with the ginger.
