JUMP TO RECIPEGlow Glo Juice is a refreshing drink packed with powerful antioxidants and anti-inflammatory ingredients that support glowing skin and immunity.
Glow Glo Juice provides a refreshing beauty and immunity boost with a blend of lemon, lemon peel, orange, and ginger.
It is:
Rich in Vitamin C: Vitamin C protects and supports your collagen and supports immunity.
Anti-inflammatory: Ginger helps to reduce inflammation and supports immunity.
Antioxidants: There are a variety of antioxidants in this beauty beverage, but an important one is limonene, which is concentrated in lemon peel. It's a particularly potent antioxidant because it stays in the body longer than many other antioxidants, like the ones found in green tea or cocoa. Antioxidants combat free radicals to keep your skin clear and wrinkle-resistant. Limonene is even being studied for its cancer-fighting potential.
Glow Glo Juice
This neon yellow juice supports glowing skin from within with a blend of lemon, lemon peel, orange, and ginger. Add fresh aloe for added gut benefits.
PREP TIME: 5 minutes
TOTAL TIME: 5 minutes
MAKES: 8 servings
INGREDIENTS
-
2 lemons peeled
-
Peel of 1 lemon, white pith removed
-
1 orange peeled
-
1-2 inch ginger peeled
-
2-3 inch piece of fresh aloe gel (optional)
-
1.5-2 ltr water
INSTRUCTIONS
-
Slice the lemons into quarters. Pop the flesh out and into the blender. Use a paring knife to carefully remove most of the white pith from the peel of one (or both) of the lemons. This prevents bitterness and increases the intensity of the color of the final juice.
-
Slice the orange into quarters, and pop the flesh out, into the blender, along with ginger, aloe gel, and enough water to hit the fill line.
-
Blend for 10 to 20 seconds, until most of the solids disappear. Let the juice sit for 5 minutes, you’ll see the sediment settle, and the color turn from pale yellow to bright, almost neon yellow.
-
Use a spoon to hold back the foam while you pour through a fine-mesh sieve into glasses or a large pitcher.
-
Drink as is, over ice, or chill in the fridge before serving.
