If making healthy food choices was one of your New Year’s resolutions, then you might enjoy National Green Juice Day, which occurs annually on January 26. This day was created in 2016 by Evolution Fresh, a cold pressed juice brand which is sold nationwide in Starbucks and select grocery stores.
Evolution Fresh noticed that most people abandon their New Year’s resolutions by the end of January and wanted to encourage people to adopt a small healthy choice, like consuming green juice, in order to lead to a healthier lifestyle.
If you’ve never tried green juice before and are nervous about the taste, don’t worry, there’s plenty of green juice recipes to choose from which vary in flavor. Some green juices are made entirely from vegetables, while others incorporate fruit too – yielding a sweeter flavor profile.
Green juices often use herbs and vegetables like kale, spinach, celery, cucumbers. These veggies have such a powerful hue that even when juiced with fruit, they often dominate the color of the drink, turning it green.
