Green Machine Juice Recipe (2024)

Why it's an amazing juice

Detox drinks are awesome to help your body melt away stubborn belly fat. A few that have become quite popular over the internet are my apple cider vinegar drink, green detox juice, lemon cucumber mint detox water, these detox water recipes, and fruit infused water.

All of these beverages, including this Green Machine Juice, are beneficial drinks to cleanse the body for weight loss, promote vibrant skin, increases hydration, energy, reduce hypertension and flush away toxins!

You can easily turn it into a smoothie. Just add about 1 cup of ice and blend the ingredients in a blender and do not strain the pulp for a smoothie.

This Green Machine Juice is great for getting instant nutrients the body can easily absorb. Removing the pulp in homemade juices allows the body to absorb the nutrients faster as it is not working on processing or breaking down the fibers and nutrients quickly goes into the bloodstream.

What you need

You need a high powered blender and a nut bag to make Green Machine Juice in a blender. To juice it, an juicer works and I recommend the Breville juicer or this Hamilton juicer works well and is more affordable.

I love using my Vitamix and this mesh / nut bag - as both are top-of-the-line for blending and straining.
