A few months ago, I spent two weeks in Bali and one of my favorite things about that trip was starting each day with a glass of fresh blended juice before my coffee and breakfast. It was like I was giving my body a nutrient-dense boost that gave me energy, woke up my tastebuds, and even helped jumpstart my digestion. When I came back home, I continued to start my day with fresh juice, even bought a manual orange juice press, and it not only makes me feel good but brightens up my day!

If you are looking for a quick, easy, and delicious way to nourish your body, I highly recommend breaking your fast (before your coffee and breakfast) with one of these yummy blended juice recipes. One thing to note, having a really good blender will definitely help, I love my Beast Blender for making smooth blended juices and smoothies.
