Cleansing Pineapple, Apple and Ginger Juice

With all the excitement from the Giants winning the World Series last night some of us may be feeling a little sleepy or possibly hungover?  This cleansing pineapple, apple and ginger juice really is perfect for taking you out of a tiresome morning haze!  The combination of tropical pineapple and apples, with a touch of spicy ginger, gives a refreshing kick that will help energize you through a rough morning.  The color of this juice alone is beautiful and keeps me in good sprits!  It really is delicious and tastes like a large juiced Jolly-Rancher!  This would actually be a great option if you are looking to bring a healthy drink to a Halloween party this weekend as it really does taste like liquid candy!

 Since we are juicing the fruits in this recipe, every sip floods your body immediately with cleansing properties but this also means that the fiber has been stripped away.  That’s why I love to drink this juice alongside my creamy oatmeal porridge, coconut macaroon bites or any food high in fiber, rebalancing my fiber intake. 

Ginger root has a slew of health benefits ranging from high in antioxidants to being used as a natural remedy for motion sickness or nausea!  Ginger is also great for stimulating and aiding in digestion by breaking down food so that nutrients can be absorbed quicker.  Pineapple and apples also have wonderful cleansing properties, especially if you are feeling sick, as they are packed with vitamin C and magnesium.  Vitamin C helps to support your immune system with antioxidants, while magnesium is essential for muscle and nerve function.  Enjoy this delicious and cleansing drink and have a great Halloween weekend!
