Recommended Juicer
I make all of my juices with one of the best slow coldpress juicers in the world, the Kuvings REVO830. It is a bit pricey but has a generous 15 year warranty and can also make nut milks, sorbet, ice cream, and of course juices.
The pulp produced is also extremely dry which means you get the most out of your money.When I had a cheaper high speed juicer, the pulp was extremely wet and I had to run it through several times. Kuvings also offers other models at affordable prices as well as a monthly payment plan.
Check out the Kuvings USA (or whichever country your location is) website to view other models such as the C7000 and Ev0820. Be sure to use my code ITALEATS during checkout to receive 10% off all the juice models Kuvings has to offer!
How to make Spirulina Green Juice
Step One:
Wash your produce properly and allow to soak in baking soda and vinegar for at least 15 minutes. This will help to remove any dirt residue, pesticides, or bugs that may be on the fruit/veg. Cut your produce according to you juicer/blender size.
Step Two:
Juicer: Juice the product in the juicer and strain if necessary. Mix in the spirulina powder at the very end and enjoy!
Blender: Juice the oranges by hand or orange squeezer. Add the orange juice and extra coconut water if needed and blend with the fresh produce until everything is combined. Strain and mix in the spirulina powder.
How to store Spirulina Green Juice
Storing depends on the method of juice extraction. If using a blender/high speed juicer, the juice should be consumed right away. These methods only allow the juice to keep tis nutrients for 30 minutes up to one day. However, if you use a cold press juicer, the nutrients will also for up to 72 hours or 3 days.
Freezing is also a method. Store in a BPA free plastic water bottle (NOT GLASS!) and freeze for up to 2 weeks. When its time to consume, let it thaw out for a few hours and enjoy!
