Ever since I got my first juicer I have been loving starting my morning with fresh juice. Once you’ve juiced your own vegetables and fruits you will not want to stop. It’s so full of flavor and better than anything you can buy at the store!
Today I was going to be doing some filming for another recipe and as I got my morning basic green juice together I thought – Why not share this recipe too!
This is a basic green juice recipe that is perfect for those who are new to juicing and veteran juicers a like. It’s my go-to daily juice that I make. I’ve made this juice far more than any other juice. It’s just SO good! The green gives me a natural energy boost first thing in the morning too!
Juicing in Action!
*TIP – It’s best to drink fresh juice on an empty stomach. This allows your body to absorb all the nutrients and if you have food in your stomach you can sometimes get heartburn.
- 4-5 small handfuls of spinach
- 4 stalks of celery
- 1 large cucumber
- 1 lemon
- 1 cup pineapple
- 1 nub ginger
- *optional* small splash coconut water to flush the juicer
- Wash and prepare all your fruits and veggies
- Juice veggies
- Flush juicer with coconut water
- Enjoy!
If you wanted to you could (and I usually do) sub apples for the pineapple. I regularly use apples in my juice, but occasionally I have pineapple or pears that need to be used up and they make a great substitute in this basic green juice recipe!
Enjoy!
Check out my other juicing recipe!
What is your favorite juice?

I love the ingredients you used in this! I’ll have to give this a try.
Hehehe it looks like that Nickelodeon slime 😉 Great recipe – thanks for sharing.
Ha! It does a bit huh!? Tastes way better though!
At first I was going to say that this smoothie was not for me but I read through the ingredients and I think I would like it. The Pineapple would make it sweet and cover up some of the other greener ingredients. I will have to try this.
Yep! The pineapple helps ease the transition into the green juices!!!
We are slowly starting to try juicing. Baby steps, lol! Awesome video!
That sounds delish. I’ve been doing the green smoothies daily, but haven’t tried juicing yet.
Oh I bet you’d love it!!
I’ve been trying to get into juicing lately. This recipe is so simple and it sounds easy to drink. I will definitely be trying it out.
You mentioned pears and that got me thinking about pear juice. I’d love to try pear juice.
Yes! Pear juice is AMAZING!! Pear and cucumber is my fav!
I’ve been looking for a juice recipe as I really want to start juicing. Thank you for sharing.
Ginger! I never thought of adding that! Yum!
Oh you have to try it!! Ginger in juice or smoothies is SO good for your body!
This looks amazing, I will be trying it.
Yum! I love green smoothies, I bet I would like this green juice! It would be a great way to help my son get the veggies he needs!
Yes! My son loves my green juices. As long as they have apples, pineapples, or pears. He needs them a bit sweeter to cover the green!
It sounds like it tastes good, but oh god that color. Too green! My mind mentally blocks me from enjoying it!
Honestly I’m scared to try a juice like this. I’m not really a juice drinker and its so green! Love the fruit/veggie combo though!
