beetroot juice

Beetroot juice is a vibrant and nutrient-rich beverage made from fresh beetroots. Here's how you can make beetroot juice at home:

Ingredients:

- Fresh beetroots

Instructions:

1. Wash the beetroots thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt or debris.

2. Trim off the tops and bottoms of the beetroots, as well as any rough or blemished areas on the skin.

3. Peel the beetroots using a vegetable peeler to remove the outer skin. Alternatively, you can scrub the beetroots well with a vegetable brush and leave the skin on for added nutrients.

4. Cut the beetroots into smaller pieces that will fit into your juicer or blender.

5. If using a juicer, feed the beetroot pieces through the machine to extract the juice. If using a blender, add the beetroot pieces to the blender along with a small amount of water and blend until smooth.

6. If using a blender, strain the blended mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove any pulp or solids. This step is optional and can be skipped if you prefer a thicker, more fiber-rich juice.

7. Serve the beetroot juice immediately in glasses with ice, if desired, or refrigerate it for later use. Enjoy your freshly made beetroot juice!

Note: Freshly made beetroot juice is best consumed immediately for optimal flavor and nutritional benefits. If storing leftovers, transfer the beetroot juice to an airtight container and refrigerate it for up to 1-2 days. Shake or stir the juice before serving, as natural separation may occur over time. Additionally, you can enhance the flavor of beetroot juice by adding a squeeze of lemon juice or a pinch of ground ginger or cinnamon.
