Fast & Easy Detox Juice Recipe

Detox juices often conjure images of expensive gadgets or complicated tools—but not this one. With just a blender, cheesecloth, and a few vibrantly nutritious ingredients, you can make a striking Crimson Detox Juice that supports liver health, floods your body with antioxidants, and tastes delicious.

Beets, among the star ingredients, are renowned for their liver-tonifying properties thanks to betaine, which helps convert homocysteine and supports healthy bile production. Combined with blood orange’s citrus brightness and pomegranate’s antioxidant punch, this juice does more than flush— it nourishes. Below is the complete guide, from locked ingredients through to pairings and occasions.

Quick and Easy Homemade Detox Juice

Recipe Ingredients

• 1 beet
• 2 blood oranges
• ½ cup pomegranate juice
• ¼ to 1 cup water, depending on desired intensity

Recipe Instructions

1. Chop the beet and segment or peel the blood oranges. Combine them with pomegranate juice and your chosen amount of water in a blender.
2. Blend until smooth. The mixture will be thick and pulpy.
3. Line a large bowl with cheesecloth over the rim. Pour the blended mixture into the cloth.
4. Let it rest for about 5 minutes so liquid drains, then gather the edges of the cloth and squeeze out as much juice as possible.
5. Pour into glasses, add ice if desired, garnish with mint or a citrus slice, and serve immediately.

• Chill Before Serving: Let juice rest in fridge for 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld and mellow.
