Default How to make celery juice taste better?

Anyone know? I'd like to start drinking celery juice and carrot juice. ( I have a juicer) How in the world do I make it taste better? The celery juice is so bitter.

Oranges! We make orange juice in our vitamix and we can throw just about anything in there w/out tasting it. Well, to an extent, of course Have you tried that yet?

I did, but maybe not enough. I'll try that tomorow. I'm still open to suggestions. I'll try just about anything at this point.

I'd so love to do that, but I'm drinking it for my blood pressure and well, chocolate has caffene which isn't good for blood pressure.

Celery is the richest vegetable source of the mineral Sodium with over 120 mg. Per 100 grams. It might take something as sweet as Carrot along with whatever else you wanted in it, to overcome the salty taste.

Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take a boat in the air that you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turn of the world. Love keeps her in the air when she ought to fall down. Tells you she's hurting before she keens. Makes her a home.

Default Re: How to make celery juice taste better?

My family drinks celery and carrot juice almost every day and has no idea, it is hidden in frozen fruit smoothies I make in our Vita-Mix. I would estimate I use 1 cup OJ, 2.5 cups frozen Spectrum fruit blend (from Costco), handful of baby carrots or 1 med carrot, and 1 large stalk celery per batch (split into 3 portions for dh and kids). If the celery is particularly bitter, I add a squirt of honey.

Default Re: How to make celery juice taste better?

Celery juice was recognized as a tonic around the turn of the 20th century. People drank it all the time . . . as celery soda. I've had the real deal, made from fresh celery (and lots of sugar) right on the premises. It's pretty good!

Default Re: How to make celery juice taste better?

It has never even occurred to me to throw celery into a smoothie I might just have to try it! So I should definitely keep the carrots with it as well, right? (not trying to hijack the thread, really ) I'm gonna have to do some googling...

Can you have frozen OJ concentrate? I bet that would knock out the flavor... We mix everything into fresh oranges and can't taste it. How about bananas? They have a fairly dominate flavor as well...maybe carrots and bananas? I think I'd have to have either the OJ or oranges myself

Default Re: How to make celery juice taste better?

I *love* straight celery juice, but if it's too strong try adding cucumber. It's so light. A little apple would go a long way, too.

I think I love celery juice so much because we usually drink straight kale juice--that can be tough to get down.
