Scale
- 1 fresh dragon fruit, peeled
- 1 lime, peeled
- 1/2 cup water (if using a blender)
Instructions
- Cut the dragon fruit into pieces that will fit through the feeding tube of a juicer. If you will be using a blender to make your juice, then cut your produce into smaller pieces than if you are using a juicer.
- If you are using a juicer, then run the fruit pieces through the juicer. Collect the juice in a pitcher and serve immediately.
- If you are using a food processor or blender, add the dragon fruit pieces and peeled lime to the base. Add about 1/2 cup of water. Blend or process on high for 20-30 seconds, or until the mixture is smooth.
- Then, pour the blended juice through a nut milk bag, squeezing it from the top down to drain the juice into a pitcher. Discard the collected pulp, or save it and use it for another purpose. Alternatively, don’t strain the juice as serve it as a blended drink instead!
- Serve the juice immediately.
Notes
- You can easily double or triple this recipe for more servings.
- Fresh juice is best served right after it’s made. But, it can be stored in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- Fresh dragon fruit juice is best served chilled. You can refrigerate the produce before juicing or blending to ensure it’s chilled. Or, simply serve the juice over ice.
