Beetroot is a fantastic vegetable, though you usually find it already cooked or pickled. Making juice from beetroot was a whole new adventure in juice for me, so finding the right combination of juices was key.
I ended up adapting this recipe to suit me ie. smaller quantity and different proportions.
