Power Detox Juice Recipe

This green detox juice, made with fresh aloe vera, nopal cactus, and lemon, is a powerful natural remedy for cleansing your liver, gut, and digestive system. Rich in antioxidants, fiber, and hydrating compounds, this juice promotes digestion, supports liver function, helps flush toxins, and boosts overall wellness. Ideal for mornings or empty-stomach detox routines, this traditional blend is simple yet highly effective.

Ingredients

  • 1 medium-sized nopal cactus paddle (cleaned and chopped)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh aloe vera gel (extracted from the leaf)
  • 1 whole lemon (juiced)
  • 1 glass (approx. 250 ml) of water
  • Optional: 1 small green apple or ½ cucumber for taste
  • Optional: 1 tsp honey (if needed for sweetness)

Instructions

  1. Prepare ingredients:
    Wash the nopal cactus thoroughly to remove any thorns. Cut it into small cubes. Extract the clear gel from a fresh aloe vera leaf using a spoon. Squeeze the juice from one lemon and set aside.
  2. Blend the juice:
    Add the nopal cactus, aloe vera gel, lemon juice, and water into a blender. If using green apple or cucumber, add them now. Blend on high for 1–2 minutes until smooth.
  3. Strain (optional):
    For a smoother texture, strain the juice using a fine sieve or cheesecloth. This step is optional if you prefer a thicker, fiber-rich drink.
  4. Serve fresh:
    Pour into a glass and drink immediately. For best results, consume on an empty stomach in the morning.
  5. Repeat daily or a few times a week
    For detox benefits, drink this juice 3–5 times a week. Combine with a clean diet for maximum effect.
