This dazzling azure health elixir both invigorates and fuels your body, blending fresh ingredients with nutrient-rich algae goodness. The eye-catching blue hue comes straight from blue spirulina powder, while crisp fruits and veggies create a tasty base that turns your daily nutrient intake into something you'll actually look forward to.
When I stumbled across blue spirulina at my neighborhood health shop, it quickly became part of my everyday morning lineup. The way it perks me up without coffee's nervous energy has completely changed my start to the day, and my kids can't get enough of the magical ocean-blue color.
Key Ingredient Breakdown
- Blue spirulina powder: Go for premium, verified suppliers
- Green apples: Pick crisp and tangy ones for better taste
- Fresh celery: Look for snappy stalks with no spots
- Romaine lettuce: Bright, verdant bunches
- Filtered water: Quality impacts flavor
- Optional ginger: Brings a spicy kick
- Fresh lemon: Lifts all the flavors
Simple Preparation Guide
- Getting Ingredients Ready:
- Rinse everything well. Chop apples to fit your juicer. Keep the celery leaves when trimming. Give lettuce a good wash. Have all items prepped before you begin.
- Running The Juicer:
- Begin with the more delicate items. Mix in tougher produce between batches. Feed slowly through the machine. Watch how much pulp comes out. Wipe the spout if it clogs.
- Mixing In Spirulina:
- Use exact measurements for the powder. Mix it with a small juice portion first. Stir until perfectly dissolved. Pour into the main juice batch. Look for any powder clumps. Use a strainer if needed.
- Putting It All Together:
- Mix everything thoroughly. Sample and tweak. Add ice if you want it cold. Throw in some garnish if you'd like. Drink right away. Keep leftovers properly sealed.

My entire morning changed after I started drinking this blue wonder. The energy it gives lasts way longer than my old coffee habit, and I love knowing I'm giving my body something truly good right from the start of my day.
Ideal Serving Temperature
Many folks love their juice super cold, but I've noticed that slightly cool juice helps my body absorb all the good stuff better. During hot weather, I'll toss in some ice, but usually stick with just lightly chilled.
Keeping It Fresh
Keep in a sealed glass bottle filled to the top to stop air getting in. While it tastes best right after making, you can keep it in your fridge for up to a day without losing too much goodness.
Changing With The Seasons
In summer months, I throw in some cucumber for extra cooling effects. When it gets colder outside, I like adding more ginger for its natural warmth.
