1 cucumber, chopped
2 sprouts, chopped
1 knob of ginger, peeled & chopped
1/4 pineapple, peeled
Orange, cucumber, Brussels sprout, ginger and pineapple juice recipe made with a Fridja masticating juicer.

An unusual mix that works. Orange and pineapple keep it sweet, cucumber makes it light, and the sprouts and ginger give it a savoury, warming edge.

Makes: about 2 glasses (around 500ml). Prep: 10 minutes.

How to make it

  1. Peel the oranges and split them into segments.
  2. Peel the pineapple and cut it into chunks.
  3. Trim the sprouts and cut them in half.
  4. Peel the ginger and cut it into small pieces.
  5. Feed the sprouts and ginger in between the softer fruit and cucumber.
  6. Stir and serve.

Tips and swaps

Two sprouts is plenty, as more can make the juice bitter. A handful of kale or spinach works instead. It's also a good way to use up leftover sprouts after Christmas.

Which Fridja juicer to use

The f1900 Whole Fruit Juicer or the f2500 Self Feeding Whole Fruit Juicer.

Storing it

Best drunk fresh. It keeps in a sealed glass jar in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
