Beet Juice Recipe

I’m sharing a fresh and healthy blender juice today, plus an amazing giveaway you don’t want to miss! ThisBasil Beet Juice Recipeis vivacious and packed with goodness.

We have gone through the gamut of blenders over the years. Our blender is our most used countertop appliance, so I tend to be a little particular about it.

We’ve tried the inexpensive “As Seen on TV” blenders that last only a couple months, to high-endinvestmentblenders that promise big results, yet often fall short.

The blender I have been the most happy with, so far, is theKitchenAid 5-Speed Diamond Blender. A versatile blender with a whole lot of power for the price point. In fact, after using it for a week, I packed up my blender which cost 3 times as much and stored it away as a backup. Recently though, KitchenAid came out with a new blender I wasreallyexcited to try.

About a year ago I saw theTorrent Magnetic Drive Blenderat a food show and have been watching and waiting ever since.

This new KitchenAid blender is a true marvel in technology! The blade doesn’t go through the bottom of the jar attaching it to the base, like most blenders. Instead, when the blender jar is locked into place, magnetic force spins the blade. That means it can’t leak from the bottom of the jar over time.

The lock system safely holds the covered jar in place so there’s no need to hold your hand over the top out of fear of the lid popping off. It’s just not possible! I can’t tell you what a relief that is. I’ve scrubbed the ceiling one too many times after the kids used our blender for smoothies.

There are four pre-set functions for making perfect icy drinks, smoothies, soups and sauce, and juice, plus a pulse setting. You also have the ability to adjust the power from low and smooth to high and frothy, as needed.

If you forget to add something to the blender, no problem! The ingredient funnel on top makes it easy to drop extra items in while the blender is whizzing away. It’s also great for no-mess oil drizzling for dressings and sauces.

I’m sold guys. TheKitchenAid Torrent Magnetic Drive Blenderis my new favorite countertop appliance.

It’s gorgeous, super sleek, ingeniously designed, easy to use, easy to clean, and can blast through anything I put in it. The kids love using it as well, and I don’t feel the need to hover over them while their creative juices are flowing.

Making blender juice is one of my favorite things. I hate keeping unnecessary appliances around the house and decided to give away my juicer a while ago. If you have a great blender and asieve, there’s just no need for a juicer.

This summer I’ve been making all sorts of blender juices using our home-grown produce. Right now, I have tons of fresh basil growing in my container garden as well as ripe beets.

I love adding beets to juice, because they provide a rich tantalizing color that no one can resist, as well as vitamins and minerals. The basil adds a sweet herby note, complemented by the addition of one apple and a few carrots. #CantGetEnough

This Basil Beet Juice Recipe is a great way to showcase the power of the KitchenAid Torrent Magnetic Drive Blender, because there’s no need to peel or dice the produce. This blender can puree right on through. Just cut the produce into manageable sized chunks and pop them in the blender. Then add some water to help the juice along and turn the dial to the juice setting. In just moments you have gloriousmagentagoodness ready for sipping.

How to Make Beet Juice

Ingredients…

• 1 large beet
• 1 large crisp apple
• 2-3 carrots
• 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves
• 1 1/2 cups water

Instructions…

Wash and cut the beet, apple, and carrots into large chunks. No need to peel them.

Place all the ingredients into the KitchenAid Torrent Magnetic Drive Blender and cover with the lid. Turn the dial to the juice setting and press start.

Once the juice has blended, place a sieve over a large bowl. Pour the juice through the sieve to remove the pulp.

Press with a spatula to squeeze all the juice out of the pulp. Refrigerate until ready to serve!

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does this beetroot juice last?

This juice should be drunk immediately after making for the best flavor. However, you can store it in the fridge for up to a week if you make a large batch.

What are the health benefits of this juice?

This juice is a great source of minerals and nutrients, it can help lower blood pressure by increasing blood flow, boosts exercise stamina/endurance (like athletes), helps maintain a healthy weight, and can be helpful for people with heart disease or heart failure.

Beet root also has an antioxidant called betaine which can potentially help rid the liver of toxins and fatty deposits. With all these benefits and a great taste and flavor, how could you not love it?

What weight beet & apple do you recommend?

Because it’s juice, and not baked goods, the proportions can fluctuate a bit. I generally buy a 1-pound bunches of beets that usually has 3 beets per bunch. As for apples, go for average-sized apples.

I usually just throw it in the compost pile with all my other vegetable and fruit scraps.
