Sweet Potato Apple Ginger Juice

You probably already know by now that I love juicing. Yes, you’ve heard me complain endlessly about cleaning the juicer, but somedays, it calls to me. With a fridge full of produce, I spent most of my Saturday morning playing mad scientist. Nothing was safe in those veggie bins! By the end, I bottled more juice than I can tell you! I’ll be sharing some of my odd combinations with you over the next few weeks and I promise to give you my honest opinion.

I’ve heard of juicing sweet potato before and have been intrigued. I love sweet potatoes. Pairing it with apple and ginger creates a really nice seasonal fall juice. The flavors go so well together and with sweet potatoes and apples at their season’s best right now, this just made sense. Nutritionally, this juice is well under 150 calories and is a great source of potassium, beta-carotene and Vitamins A and B6.

So…the verdict on taste? This juice tastes really delicious and very much how I thought it would, but one thing I wasn’t crazy about was the starchiness from the potato. It does add a silky texture to the juice, but much of it settles to the bottom of the glass, which is actually a good thing. Except, I can’t tell you this is good to the last drop! No, really, it’s very tasty, I’d just put the glass down before you hit the loveliness at the bottom!

      Thanks so much, Valentina! I use a raw sweet potato in this since I run it through a juicer. If you wanted to create a smoothie in a blender instead, you could certainly use a roasted potato. Thanks for visiting!

    I’m down with the sweet potato. But I agree on the starch- I do an orange drink with 1/2 sweet potato, carrot, orange, ginger and turmeric. I got really into turmeric this year. Enjoying poking around TLN… I’ve been on a bit of a blogging hiatus. So much great stuff here!
    cheers… wendy

    This looks so creamy and good! And the flavor profile makes absolute sense! I love roasted sweet potato and apples … and ginger is such a warm fall spice that complements them perfectly … so why not skip the time-consuming roasting step and just drink up! So healthy, too! :D

    I love playing around with different juice combinations too. I’ve done sweet potato with beets and carrots before which was a nice combination, I’ll have to try with apple and ginger!
