How to juice celery to enjoy alone or in juice blends as a fresh and nourishing beverage – including the top benefits of celery juice and its side effects!
I’ve always prescribed an 80/20 approach to my diet, trying to consume a primarily healthy 80%, with 20% treats along the way. One way I love to provide my body with a concentrated dose of nutrients is through juicing! And, while I’ve shared recipes for ginger turmeric energy shots , plain celery juice has taken the world by storm.

How to make celery juice (in a juicer)
- First, wash and trim the celery stalks, making sure to remove any dirt.
- Then, feed the celery into your juicer, give the final juice a stir, and enjoy!
To make celery juice in a blender: Blend the celery (cut into small chunks) with about ½ cup of water or coconut water until smooth. Then, strain the juice through a fine-mesh strainer or nut milk bag, squeezing/pressing well to extract all the juice.
Boosting flavor
- Zingy citrus: A squeeze of lemon juice or lime juice helps brighten and complements the earthiness of celery. Add zest for more zing.
- Apples: Select the type of apple based on how sweet or tart you’d like the juice. I prefer sweet apples, like Honey Crisp or Fuji apples. Green apples will maintain color.
- Ginger : A small piece of fresh ginger root will add a kick of heat and warmth.
- Fresh herbs : Basil, mint, or cilantro add herbal, aromatic depth.
- Cucumber: To naturally dilute the juice while adding hydration and fresh, subtly sweet flavor.
- Cinnamon: Just a pinch for warmth.
What to do with celery juice pulp
There are several ways to save this green pulp from the trash:
- Add it to smoothy recipes or Winter soups recipes for extra fiber and nutrients,
- Use it to enhance the flavor of homemade homemade chicken stock or homemade vegetable stock .
- Bake it into bread or savory muffins,
- Dehydrate and grind into a powder to add extra nutrients and fiber to foods/drinks,
- Compost it.
You can also freeze it in an ice-cube tray or spread it flat in a Ziplock bag for 2-3 months to use later.
How long does celery juice last in the fridge
It’s best to enjoy freshly made celery juice immediately for optimal nutrient absorption. However, any leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days.
You can also freeze the juice, portioned in an ice-cube tray, for up to 4 months.
