Making juice without a juicer is not impossible. Whether you are a student who can’t afford a juicer, don’t want to give up that precious counter space or are traveling and craving those greens, learning how to juice without a juicer is easier than you think. We love this solution from the Minimalist Baker…

If you’ve ever felt like a broke college student for not owning a juicer, join the club. While a juicer could be justified in my budget, I don’t want it to be. It’s yet another piece of equipment taking up space in our small kitchen and requiring loads of clean-up time. As with everything I prefer to keep things simple and affordable.

How To Juice Without A Juicer

My solution? Juicing without a juicer. All you need is a blender, a bowl and a fine mesh strainer, and you’re well on your way to having fresh, custom-made juice in your fridge at a fraction of the cost.

The main thing to remember when choosing a flavor is to keep a balance of savory and sweet. Otherwise, dream away and start soaking up the benefits and savings of juicing at home without a juicer.

A few juicing tips…
+ If you add kale, balance it out with pineapple to keep it from becoming too bitter.
+ If you add beets and carrots, throw in an apple as well to keep it light, refreshing and sweet.
+ You can make your juice ahead of time and store in mason jars in the fridge, but it’s always best when fresh.
