I've been doing a lot of juicing lately, as the winter slips away and spring creeps in.
There are many health benefits that come from adding juicing to your daily diet. I have been trying to incorporate more beets into my juicing recipes; (I've found many great juicing recipes on Pinterest).
For this recipe I combined fruit, vegetables, ginger and spice. This is an invigorating, detoxifying juice with added zing from the ginger and a kick of spice from the cinnamon. The added deep red color from the beets is a visually appealing plus!

It helps to have all your materials together before you start, so
gather your carrots, plums, beets, ginger, and cinnamon onto a
cutting board. Prepare your juicer so you can easily place the fruit
and veggies in it once chopped.
Peel carrots, cut ends off of beets and slice all fruit and veggies up. The slices don't have to uniform or pretty, it's all going in the blender after all!
Slice skin from around ginger and cut into slices.
*Optional* If you would like to add a little sweetness to balance out the tartness of the plums, put half a sliced green apple into the mix.
Layer ingredients into your juicer, (or you can use a blender and press the smoothie through a fine mesh sieve to extract the juice)
This recipe makes 1 1/2 cups, perfect for sharing!
Add an ice cube to each glass for a refreshing juice experience!
