Whether you’re wanting to do a liver cleanse or you just want a juice that makes you feel energized and fresh, you’ll want to try this healthy juice recipe.

Making fresh juice in a juicer or a blender is a fun and health-promoting addition to your day. Store-bought ones aren’t always the freshest, and will often have added sugars or other undesirable ingredients.

Key Ingredients

Ingredients for liver cleanse juice laid out on a white surface.
  • Beets are high in fiber and add vibrant color to your glass. Beets are also known to help with liver function and prevent liver damage. They essentially help support the both the digestive system and the body’s natural detoxification system. They are one of my favorite vegetables to juice!
  • Cucumber is very hydrating and perfect for including in this delicious Liver Detox Juice.
  • Apples add sweetness. You can use either a red apple or a green apple for this detox drink recipe (see my list of best apples for juice).
  • Lemon ties everything together with its acidity and brightness. It is a nice source of vitamin C that supports the immune system and liver detoxification. Plus, it adds brightness of flavor to the juice and helps balance the “green” flavor.
  • Dandelion greens are leafy greens that have amazing antioxidants and are highly nutritious. They have also been studied for their role in supporting liver health and fighting liver disease.
  • You may also want to check out my Herbal Coffee recipe that contains dandelion root.
  • Parsley is rich in Vitamin C and antioxidants. It has been studied for its role in reducing heavy metals in the body and is one of those healthy foods that is almost always included in any detox diet. It’s great for reducing harmful substances and reducing oxidative stress. Be sure to use flat-leaf parsley and not the curly kind. Parsley juice is on my list of juices for energy!

Recipe Tips

  • 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.
  • You can peel the cucumber if you want to, but you don’t have to.
  • Use whatever type of apple you like best. Red apples tend to have more natural sugars than green apples. If you want your juice to have less sugar, then you can leave out the apple entirely.

Recipe FAQs

What type of cucumbers should I use?

Whatever is in your garden or farmer’s market! You can peel or not, depending on how it normally affects you. If you buy hothouse or English, they are generally seedless. Because you are blending or juicing and then straining, the seeds aren’t a problem.

How often can I drink this Liver Cleanse Juice?

You may want to ask your healthcare provider, but most people should be able to drink it once a day. Be forewarned that consuming beets or beetroot juice can turn your stool pink or red. So, don’t be alarmed if this happens after you drink the juice.

Does this juice really cleanse the liver?

The liver is one of our essential organs and works naturally to help detoxify our blood and reduce our toxic load. It is sometimes known as the body’s “filter.” One of the most important functions of the liver is to breakdown alcohol and other harmful substances, among many other duties.

While a healthy liver does its own cleansing or detoxification work, it’s a good idea to support the liver by consuming foods with antioxidants and dietary fiber so it remains strong and functioning.

Eating unhealthy foods or too many refined carbohydrates can lead to fatty liver disease and other liver problems. On the other hand, eating solid foods or doing a juice cleanse with this liver cleansing juice recipe only helps to support the liver’s work.

What other foods help cleanse the liver?

Almost all real, whole foods will benefit the liver as well as the entire body. Try eating more cruciferous vegetables to increase your overall antioxidant intake. You may also want to read my articles on the Best Foods to Eat Every Day, Clean Eating Shopping List, and the Green Vegetables.

If you want more liver supportive recipes, try my Beet Juice Recipe or Herbal Coffee, or read my articles on Beet Juice Benefits and Beet Juice Powder. Or, check out my Liver Detox Smoothie which is another liver cleansing drink.

Do you use raw or cooked beets in this recipe?

Use raw beets. Just remove any greens and scrub the beets well before cutting and juicing.
