Have you ever thought about the incredible benefits of beetroot juice? This drink is not only a delight for your taste buds but also a true elixir for health. Beetroot is known for its detoxifying and energizing properties, and when combined with fresh fruits, it becomes a perfect choice for a healthy breakfast or a revitalizing snack. Additionally, beetroot juice with fruits offers a vibrant palette of colors that will delight your eyes and bring a touch of joy to your day.

Ingredients

- 1 medium red beet
- 4-5 large mandarins (or more if they are small)
- 5 Golden apples
- 1 ripe banana
- 1 slice of ginger
- 2 large glasses of 400-500 ml (make sure you have a fruit juicer)

Ingredient details

- Red beet: It is rich in antioxidants, vitamins (A, B6, C), and minerals (potassium, magnesium). It is known for its ability to improve blood circulation and reduce blood pressure.

- Mandarins: These citrus fruits are full of vitamin C, which helps the immune system. Their sweet aroma and fresh scent perfectly complement the earthy taste of beetroot.

- Golden apples: These apples are sweet and juicy, bringing a perfect balance between acidity and sweetness. They are an excellent source of fiber and vitamins.

- Banana: It provides creaminess to the juice and is a good source of potassium and healthy carbohydrates, which will give you an energy boost.

- Ginger: It is known for its anti-inflammatory and digestive properties. A slice added will give the juice a spicy and revitalizing note.

Step by step: Preparing beetroot juice with fruits

1. Wash and prepare the ingredients: Use clean water and make sure to wash the beet, mandarins, apples, and ginger well. Peel the banana and beet. You can leave the apples with the skin, as the skin contains many vitamins and fiber.

2. Cut the ingredients: Cut the beet into small cubes to facilitate juicing. The mandarins can be separated into segments, and the apples into slices. The ginger can be cut into thin slices.

3. Juicing the fruits: Start by adding the mandarins and apples to the fruit juicer. They will create a sweet and fragrant juice. Continue with the banana, which will provide creaminess to the juice. Finally, add the chopped beet and the slice of ginger. It is important to juice the beet last, as its juice is denser and will tend to settle at the bottom.

4. Mix the juice: Once all the ingredients are juiced, mix the juice in a bowl to combine the flavors. You will notice that the beet juice will settle at the bottom, while the rest of the juice will be a vibrant yellow.

5. Serving: Fill the glasses with the obtained juice, leaving about a third of the glass empty. Then add the beet juice, creating a layered effect. This will be not only delicious but also visually appealing.

Serving suggestions

To enhance the experience, you can add a few fresh mint leaves to the glasses for an extra touch of color and flavor. Additionally, this juice pairs excellently with a slice of whole-grain toast topped with avocado or a green smoothie.
