Juicing for kids: the easiest (and yummiest) way to get nutrients into tots

Katie Mythen-Lynch

Many of us have invested in juicers that now go unloved in the back of a press somewhere.

However, there are so many benefits to blending yourself a good juice.

And not just for you. After you’ve whipped up your own nutritious morning blend, try some of these recipes designed to send little ones off to school on the right foot…

 

1. The Healthy Elf

A zingy blend of lime, spinach, broccoli and apple, this juice will guarantee they drink their greens.

 

2. Orange Morning Juice

Bursting with Vitamin C, a daily dose of this juice will boost their immune system and help ward off colds and flu.

 

3. Feel the Beet

Think your kids won’t touch beetroot? Think again. This tasty recipe has a spicy ginger kick and all the healing and cleansing power of the most nutrient-rich root vegetable, plus the vibrant fuchsia colour will appeal to any little girl’s love of pink.
