How to Make a Celery Juice
It is effortless to make Detox Morning Celery Juice. The easiest method is to put the celery in a Juicer which will extract the juice in seconds.
If you don't have a Juicer, the second method is to place the celery in a blender and blend until smooth. Then, strain through a strainer, cheesecloth, or nut-milk bag and serve.
If you are not yet into juicing yet, I highly recommend getting a Cold-Pressed Juicer. Great investment. If you are unsure, give it a try with a blender which is a more typical kitchen artifact, and see how you like it.

Best way to drink Celery Juice
The best way to drink this magnificent juice is first thing in the morning on an empty stomach, by itself. I am proposing to add an apple and ginger to this recipe because many people find it too bitter and fall of track before experimenting with this juice's great benefits.
It happened to me. So adding an apple and ginger during the first weeks will help you get used to the flavor of celery because it tastes delicious. Then little by little, you can increase the ratio of celery vs. apple and ginger and drink it by itself.
It doesn't mean that it won't work; it is just that the celery juice's most significant benefits are realized when consumed on its own.
Wait 15 to 30 minutes before consuming anything else.
Celery Juice is not a breakfast, is a tonic. You still need to have breakfast afterwards.
I drink my morning celery juice pre-workout and eat a protein breakfast post-workout. Then, I eat something like a Tofu Scramble or Homemade Granola to replenish my body from the minerals lost from sweating.
Also I prefer exercising with as little as possible in my stomach for two reasons:
- I don't get any pain in the right side of the belly.
- I feel lighter
- I can eat a full protein-packed breakfast which nutrients my body will absorb better.
I often drink beetroot after work out for its anti-inflammatory, stamina, and muscle power improving benefits.
Drinking Celery juice in the morning is great because it has anti-inflammatory properties. In addition, the ingredients in this juice help improve skin health, improve the digestive tract's function, and help relax nerves, which are sometimes damaged due to unhealthy lifestyle and food choices.
Get an excellent Cold-Pressed juicer; it will be one of the best investments you have made in the year! Trust me!
The Benefits of Celery Juice are countless...
In the morning (jugo verde as it is called in Latin America), this green juice can also strengthen bones and have anti-insomnia properties.
But why celery juice and not just eating it with hummus or cooked?
Celery is high in fiber, which is excellent for the digestive tract. Still, it makes it harder for the body to extract the total value of this super vegetable. That is why it is good to give our body a little help by doing some pre-work for it, so it spends less time breaking the fiber and more time assimilating the nutrients.
…and why first thing in the morning?
In the morning, the digestive tract is clean; thus, the intestine can absorb everything much better.
My Twist to make it delicious
I add ginger and an apple to our juice because ginger adds an immune system booster property we all need these days. I add the green apple for its antioxidants properties and sweetness, enhancing the flavor and making it delicious, which I cannot say about this morning green juice by itself.
Of course, you can add as many fruits and vegetables to your morning juice, but keeping it simple saves time and allows your body to absorb the nutrients much better.

Could I use red apples or apple sauce?
I have made it with all kinds of apples, green, yellow, and, red. I prefer the acidity of the green ones but crisp juicy red ones work very well. Wouldn't go for applesauce since you'd be lacking some of the fresh apple's liquid and also to avoid adding sugar to the juice (usually the applesauce has extra sugar).
I am making this juice now, a couple of times a week and I am loving it! thanks!
