Pro tips

  • Even amounts of ginger and lemon make a great base for any juice shot. From there, you can customize it however you want! We like to choose fruit and veggies that are in season because they are fresher, taste better and are usually less expensive than when they are out of season.

  • To peel the lemons, cut the peel off using a sharp knife. It's ok to leave the white pith behind, and even a little bit of the peel. It doesn't have to be perfect!
