🧾 Ingredients
This red juice recipe is made with just a few fresh ingredients:
- Red bell pepper: is vitamin C and antioxidant-rich; red bell peppers contribute to immune system support and add a distinct, slightly sweet flavor to the juice.
- Carrot: Loaded with beta-carotene, which converts to vitamin A in the body, carrots improve vision and promote healthy skin while providing natural sweetness.
- Orange: High in vitamin C and natural citrus flavors, oranges enhance the immune system and add a refreshing tang to the juice.
- Tomato: A good source of vitamin C, potassium, and lycopene, tomatoes support heart health and provide a subtle, savory undertone to the blend.
- Ginger root: Known for its anti-inflammatory and digestive benefits, ginger root adds a zesty kick and warmth to the juice, elevating its overall flavor.
See the recipe card for quantities.
Substitutions
- Red bell pepper - use orange or yellow peppers instead. Keep in mind that the flavor will be slightly different, and the red color will be considerably different. I don't recommend using green bell peppers because they are significantly more bitter than red, orange, and even yellow peppers, but you can use green bell pepper in green juices where you balance it with fruits with a sweet profile
- Orange - use mandarine oranges or clementines instead. We have also tried Kiwi for a change, and it's yummy!
- Carrot - substitute with half a beet.

🍽 Equipment
Juicer - choose a cold-pressed juicer (affiliate link)over a centrifugal juicer. They are more expensive but are definitely the best option in the long run. They yield more juice, and since there is no heat involved as there is in centrifugal users, your juice preserves more nutrients and oxidizes slower (lasts more).
OR
- Blender- if you don't have a juicer, you will need a high-speed blender (affiliate link) and,
- Mesh strainer- when making juice, use a regular colander or nut milk bag. We recommend using the same ones we use to make almond milk.
- Bowl - It is always better to use a large bowl (affiliate link) to work the blender method without making a mess in the kitchen early in the morning.
🔪 Instructions
This bell pepper juice involves a couple of simple steps. First, wash and prepare your ingredients. Then, peel the orange, removing the skin and white parts.
Step 1: Remove the orange peels and devein the red bell peppers.
Step 2: Place all the juice ingredients in the juicer's vase.
Step 3: You will be left with the pulp, but use it for compost or a smoothie.
Hint: if you don’t have time, you can freeze the pulp and use it for carrot patties.
Hint: if you want to make this healthy juice but don't have a juicer yet, you can use a blender with a nut milk bag to separate the remaining pulp from the fresh juice.
