 Q & A

Q: Can I make this ahead of time?
A: It’s best fresh, but you can store it in an airtight glass jar in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Fill to the top to reduce oxidation.

Q: Can I skip the apple?
A: Yes. Substitute with pear for mild sweetness or omit for a lower-sugar version.

Q: Is it okay to drink daily?
A: Yes, when part of a balanced diet. Variety in fruits and vegetables is still important.

Q: Can I turn this into a smoothie?
A: Absolutely. Skip straining and add ½ frozen banana or protein powder.

Q: Is this a medical detox?
A: No. Your liver and kidneys naturally detox your body. This juice simply supports overall nutrition and hydration.
