Best Belly Fat Burning Juice Recipes For Weight Loss
I absolutely love this recipe because it’s the ultimate refreshing and nutrient-packed drink that makes me feel revitalized and ready to take on the world. Plus, the combination of pineapple and ginger gives it a zesty kick that’s perfect for waking up my taste buds and keeping me energized throughout the day.
I enjoy concocting potions that are simultaneously scrumptious and good for what ails you. My current favorite “belly fat-burning” elixir is a juice made from the following:
1.
Cool cucumber (which is mostly water, making it perfect for hydration)
2. Fresh spinach (which is good for my eyes and skin, and is packed with a ton of vitamins)
3.
Zesty lemon (which is awesome in pretty much everything, but especially refreshing when juiced)
4. Fiery ginger (which is, quite frankly, what makes this juice good for burning belly fat, as it amps up your metabolism)
Ingredients
The cucumber is not only low in calories and a source of hydration; it also assists in detoxifying the body.
Celery: Abundant in fiber, helps intestine function, and is super for keeping hydrated.
Green Apple: Contributes sugars and fibers; their influence on blood sugar is minor.
Spinach: Rich in vitamins, excellent source of iron, enhances metabolic rate.
Lemon: Offers a sharp taste; abundant in ascorbic acid, it boosts the metabolism of fats.
Ginger: Inflammation-fighting, metabolism-stimulating, and spicy.
Pineapple: Sweet and filled with vitamin C, it has bromelain that helps with digestion.
Ingredient Quantities
- 1 large cucumber, peeled and chopped
- 2 medium celery stalks, chopped
- 1 green apple, cored and sliced
- Handful of fresh spinach leaves
- 1/2 lemon, juiced
- 1-inch piece of fresh ginger, peeled
- 1/2 cup fresh pineapple chunks
- 1 cup cold water
- Ice cubes (optional)
Instructions
1. Start by washing all fruits and vegetables completely to eliminate any dirt or residue.
2. Chop the cucumber into pieces that can fit in your blender.
3. The crops of celery and green apple should be chopped. The apple must have its core removed completely before chopping.
4. Wash a small bunch of fresh spinach leaves and put them to one side.
5. Remove the skin from a 1-inch section of fresh ginger.
6. Squeeze the juice from one lemon and set the juice apart.
7. The blender should be filled with cucumber, celery, green apple, spinach, ginger, and pineapple chunks.
8. Pour into the blender the juice of one lemon and 1 cup of water at room temperature.
9. Mix the combination at high speed until even. If you want a drink that’s a bit more chilled, toss in some ice cubes and give the combination another whirl.
10. If you prefer a smoother texture, pour the juice into a glass while straining. The flavor and the benefits are best enjoyed immediately after juicing.

Pro Tips
1. Prep Ahead Peel and chop your ingredients the night before and store them in the fridge. This can save time in the morning and keep the ingredients extra cold for a refreshing drink.
2. Enhance Flavor Add a few fresh mint leaves to the blender for an extra burst of refreshing flavor that complements the cucumber and apple.
3. Boost Nutrition Include a tablespoon of chia seeds or flaxseeds into the mix before blending for added nutrients and fiber.
4. Adjust Sweetness If you prefer a sweeter drink, add a small ripe banana or a teaspoon of honey to balance the tartness of the lemon and ginger.
5. Keep It Cold Use frozen pineapple chunks instead of fresh ones to naturally chill the juice without diluting the flavor with too much ice.
