Ingredients:
2 medium-sized fresh beets, peeled and chopped
1 medium apple (optional, for sweetness)

1 large carrot (adds balance and extra nutrients)
Juice of ½ lemon
½ cup water (adjust as needed)
Ice cubes (optional)

Prep the produce: Wash all fruits and vegetables thoroughly. Peel the beets and ginger, chop everything into small chunks for easy blending or juicing.
Juice or blend:
If using a juicer: Feed all ingredients through the juicer and collect the juice in a container.
If using a blender: Add beets, apple, carrot, ginger, lemon juice, and water to a high-speed blender. Blend until smooth.
Strain (optional): For a smoother juice, strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth.

Serving and Storage Tips:
Best served fresh, but you can refrigerate beet juice in an airtight glass container for up to 48 hours.
Shake well before serving if stored, as natural separation may occur.
Avoid storing in plastic bottles, as beet pigments may stain and degrade the container over time.
