OJ with a Twist

drinks recipe recipes Jan 27, 2025

I love fresh juices. I often find myself buying them when I’m travelling for work or in between meetings. The issue is that this is harsh on my wallet. Fresh juices are expensive so I don’t think it’s sustainable to be buying fresh juices every day.

I try to make fresh juice at home but I have to confess I hate cleaning my juicer. So it rarely sees the light of day. Instead I use a nutri-ninja to blend the juice. This option leaves you with a less smooth juice but it’s worth it for the lack of cleaning time. This is my OJ with a twist. It is simply three ingredients. They are three of my favourite healthy ingredients.
