Notes

❄️Make Ahead Storage Instructions

After preparing your green detox juice, it's important to store it properly to maintain its freshness and nutritional benefits. Transfer the juice to an airtight container or glass bottle, filling it to the top to minimize air exposure. Do not use a plastic container. Refrigerate the juice immediately to slow down oxidation, and if possible, choose a dark container to protect it from light. For optimal flavor and nutrient retention, consume the green juice within 24 to 48 hours.
You can also freeze the juice in ice cube trays and transfer the frozen cubes to a sealed bag. Defrost in the fridge. When you're ready to drink it, shake the juice well before drinking.
While convenient for busy schedules, remember that the health benefits of green juice are most pronounced when consumed relatively soon after preparation.
