This eye-catching azure wellness drink revitalizes and feeds your body, blending crisp produce with nutrient-rich algae supplements. The dazzling blue hue comes straight from blue spirulina powder, while crisp fruits and veggies create a tasty foundation that turns your daily nutrient intake into something you'll actually enjoy.

When I first stumbled upon blue spirulina at my neighborhood health shop, I added this juice to my sunrise routine. The way it perks me up without coffee's nervous energy has completely changed my mornings, and my kids can't get enough of watching its magical blue shade.

Key Ingredients Breakdown

  • Blue spirulina powder: Go for premium, well-vetted suppliers
  • Green apples: Pick tangy, solid ones for better taste
  • Fresh celery: Look for snappy stalks with no spots
  • Romaine lettuce: Grab bright, verdant bunches
  • Filtered water: The purity really counts
  • Optional ginger: Brings a spicy kick
  • Fresh lemon: Lifts all the flavors

Simple Preparation Guide

Prep Your Produce:
Rinse everything well. Slice apples to fit your juicer. Cut celery but keep those nutritious leaves. Wash lettuce thoroughly. Get all items ready before you begin.
Juice Everything:
Begin with the tender items. Switch between soft and firm produce. Feed slowly through machine. Monitor how much pulp comes out. Wipe the spout if it clogs.
Mix In Spirulina:
Use exact measurements for powder. Blend with a small juice portion first. Mix until totally dissolved. Pour into the main batch. Look for any lumps. Filter if needed.
Finish Your Drink:
Mix everything well. Sample and tweak flavors. Add ice if you want it cold. Toss in extra garnish if you'd like. Drink right away. Keep leftovers properly chilled.

My daily kickoff changed completely after adding this azure concoction. The natural boost lasts way longer than caffeine, and starting my day knowing I'm feeding my body right makes mornings feel more meaningful.

Ideal Serving Temperature

Though many folks enjoy their juice super cold, I've noticed nutrients seem to absorb better at room temperature. During hot weather, I'll sometimes toss in some ice, but usually serve it just slightly cool.

Keeping It Fresh

Pop it in a sealed glass bottle, filling right to the top to keep air out. While drinking it fresh works best, it'll stay good up to 24 hours when kept in the fridge.

Weather-Based Variations

In summer months, I throw in cucumber for extra moisture. When it's cold outside, I might add more ginger to bring some heat to the mix.

Frequently Asked Questions

→ Why pick green apples for this?
They strike the right balance between tart and sweet, without overpowering other flavors.
→ Do I have to strain it?
Not at all. It's all about how you like the texture. Unstrained keeps more fiber.
→ How much spirulina goes in?
Start small with 1 teaspoon, and go up to 2 teaspoons for a richer blue color.
→ Can I swap out the lettuce?
Absolutely. Romaine, butter, or even iceberg work just fine.
→ Do I need to take out apple seeds?
Not really, but you can remove them if it makes you feel better.

01 6 to 8 celery stalks (leafy tops can be added or left out)
02 2 small heads of baby romaine or 1 big one of regular romaine
03 3 green apples, like Granny Smith, or your favorite tart kind

→ Boosters

04 1-2 teaspoons of blue spirulina powder (more makes the color deeper)

Instructions

Notes

  1. Lettuce can be swapped for any other type you like.
  2. Don't worry about apple seeds in this small amount, but remove if you'd rather not have them.
  3. Using celery leaves is okay, though they might make the juice darker.
  4. The more spirulina you use, the brighter the blue gets.

Tools You'll Need

  • Juicer (cold press style works best)
  • Big pitcher
  • Milk frother or a whisk
  • Optional strainer
