Make the most of your cold press juicer this summer by making some healthy and refreshing fruit and vegetable juices at home! If you don’t own a juicer, why not bring the juice bar home and invest in a LifeSpring cold press juicer? Juicing at home not only saves you money, it’s also much more nutritional and flavourful than pre-packaged juice or juice bar fruit smoothies.
We’ve compiled five of the best juice recipes that are perfect for summer – refreshing, healthy and easy to make using produce that’s in season.
