Looking for a refreshing way to enjoy bone broth during warmer weather? This green juice combines fresh vegetables, fruit and a spoonful of dehydrated bone broth to create a naturally protein-rich drink that's perfect for breakfast, after exercise or as part of a balanced diet.

Unlike traditional fruit juices, this recipe contains plenty of fresh greens alongside the natural savoury flavour of bone broth, creating a drink that's both refreshing and satisfying.

Why Add Bone Broth to Green Juice?

A dehydrated bone broth powder blends much more easily than liquid broth and won't dilute the drink.

It's best enjoyed fresh, although it can be stored in the fridge for up to 24 hours.

Can I freeze it?

Yes. Freeze in portions and blend again after thawing if needed.
