# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It takes exactly 10 minutes and tastes like you spent an hour at a juice bar, but for a fraction of the cost.
  • The combination of ginger heat and lemon brightness actually wakes up your taste buds instead of putting them to sleep.
  • You can make it on a rushed morning and still feel like you've done something intentional for your body.
02 -
  • If your blender isn't truly high-speed, the celery fiber won't break down completely and you'll end up with a stringy, annoying texture that no amount of straining fixes.
  • Fresh ginger root loses its intensity as it sits in the juice, so don't make a big batch thinking it'll stay zing-y for days.
03 -
  • If separation happens and the juice sits for a few hours, give it a good stir before drinking because the heavier solids naturally settle to the bottom.
  • Freeze the juice in ice cube trays and drop one or two cubes into water throughout the day for a lighter, extended refreshment that doesn't taste watered down.
