How to Make Purple Cabbage Juice?

1. Prepare the Ingredients

Wash and chop all the ingredients. Ensure the cabbage is finely chopped for easy blending.

2. Blend Everything

In a high-speed blender, combine the purple cabbage, apple, cucumber, ginger, and water. Blend until smooth and well-mixed.

3. Strain (Optional)

For a smoother texture, use a fine-mesh strainer or nut milk bag to strain out the pulp. If you enjoy fiber-rich juice, you can skip this step.

Squeeze in fresh lemon juice and stir well. If desired, add honey for extra sweetness.

Pro Tips for the Perfect Purple Cabbage Juice

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh cabbage and apples make a big difference in taste and nutrient content.
  • Blend with coconut water: For an extra hydration boost, replace regular water with coconut water.
  • Experiment with flavors: Try adding a pinch of cinnamon or a splash of orange juice for a unique twist.
  • Drink immediately: For maximum nutrition, consume the juice fresh. If storing, refrigerate in an airtight jar for up to 24 hours.
  • Balance the flavors: If the cabbage taste is too strong, increase the apple-to-cabbage ratio.
