Ok, so you know we always say that hydration is No 1 key to effortless wellbeing. We mean it.

Watch part one video of our water series and remind yourself why abundant hydration is so important. In fact, abundant hydration IS the most effective and simple form of detox. 

This time of the year a lot of us are becoming more active (yes, an extra walk in the park counts too!) — but do a lot of us remember to drink more water?

We are here to make your life easier so you don’t ever have to forget to drink water again. Watch this step-by-step 8.00min guide on how to increase your water intake over a period of two weeks. Implement and feel the difference.

Remember: hydrated cells = happy cells!

That’s why we always tell everyone who is doing Wild Cleanses or any other cleanse — if you want big results, and a great sense of wellbeing — drink more water before, during and after the cleanse. It does make all the difference.

Make sure you join our water challenge today and increase your water intake to at least 2.5l - 3l a day over a period of two weeks. Report your results in the comments below, on our youtube or facebook pages — we look forward to hearing from you!

Have a Wild & Flowing week!

We have something super cool to share with you today.

Have you ever felt like having something in between of juice and ice tea? A refreshing cooler for the summer? Something refreshing and easy to drink? Or ever wondered what’s the best and tastiest way to take your herbs and herbal extracts or make your juice more ‘medicinal’ and ‘healing’?

The answer is here. Tonics. Let us explain:

The secret of tonics is combining medicinal aspects and flushing effect of medicinal teas with nourishing juices and tinctures for light, refreshing and strengthening effect.

We have our favourite recipe to share with you:

How did I get to be so Focused? 

This tonic is a great blood builder and heart strengthener. It’s rich in antioxidants, helps heal colds and build immune system. All the ingredients used are local to Northern Hemisphere and Great Britain so you can make sure you get the best quality local ingredients. Great place to find them is farmers markets.

For two portions:

1 cup of cooled down nettle & rose hip tea (you can make a larger quantity of concentrate and keep it in the fridge for up to 3 day)

4 apples

2-3 table spoon of wild blueberries (can be frozen)

1,5 TBSP wildcrafted honey

2 tsp howthorn berry tincture (you can get it in any Neal’s Yard Remedies shop or online)

Juice the apples, pour the juice in a serving jug together with cooled down nettle & rosehip tea. Mix in the honey, add blueberries and crush them with the spoon, so they are still chunky but release the flavour. Finally, add the hawthorn berry tincture. Add ice to taste!

Tonics are super simple to make if you don’t have a proper juicer or a blender, they take very little time to prepare and taste awesome!

Your challenge this week is to treat yourself to a home made tonic, either our recipe or your own! Let us know how it goes!

We would love to hear your tonic experiences so leave a comment below, on our Facebook page or via email at info@wildjuicery.com

With tonic love & appreciation,

For us May means two things. Sunshine and alphonso mangos. Ok, maybe nettles too:)

We love this sunshine filled, soft-textured, sweet, flavoursome fruit so much we make sure we have crates and crates of it as soon as the season starts.

Next week at Wild Juicery it is all about alphonso mango: you can try it in our special smoothie or just get some whole fruits and make something yummy at home.

In Wild Food Cafe we take it a step forward and make a delicious raw mango tart to die for.

Watch this episode of Wild Wellbeing show to learn why you should make the best of the alphonso mango season AND learn a technique of eating mangos on the go: no knifes, no chopping boards, no mess (almost..).

This week we invite you to go to your local shop, Wholefoods or a well stocked supermarket and get some alphonso mangos. You will not regret it!

If you have your favourite ways of eating mangos do let us know as well.

If you live an active life, in a busy environment like London or any other city, your body and mind does SOOOO much better with abundant quantities of protein.

We can run fine on carbohydrates, but it tends to lead us on a short-term high followed by a low (think of afternoon sluggishness right after eating or inability to push that extra bit harder in your workout).

Protein gives a steadier and more sustainable levels of energy. It also plays a big part in weaning ourselves off our modern habit of running on sugar-induced-energy.

Let’s get to the point now. We’d love to see you all strong and juicy, so here is a simple recipe for you that you will love.

This recipe is our ultimate favoure. We use it, make it, and shake it every time we can. We included it as an essential part of the Wild Cleanses. You ask why? Because of the rich source of plant-based protein in pumpkin seeds and figs. And because seeds tend to be a lot more digestible than nuts. We like that. Oh yes.

Scroll down for the recipe.

Pumpkin seed ‘latte’ mylk (makes 2 litres)

210g Pumpkin seeds

160g Dried figs

2 level tsp cinnamon

1 level tsp turmeric

400g ice

1 level tsp Vanilla

2 TBSP Ginger juice (pre-juiced or replace it with ginger powder)

Tiny pinch of salt

Fill up to 1500 with spring water

Blend until supersmooth just with enough water to cover the blades, then add the last 500ml water to fill jug. Serve in a big glass, sprinkled with a bit of cinnamon!

As always leave a comment on our website, Facebook page or via email info@wildjuicery.com and tell us what your relationship with protein is?  We would love to hear from you.

If we had to pick one single thing, one action, that multiplied and magnified our personal wellbeing in a very short period of time the most — it would be water. Or, as we say it, drinking abundant quantities of water.

Simple things are aften most overlooked — when we experienced abundant ’high’-dration in our bodies it all started making sense. Water is a delivery vehicle for all the good stuff to come in, it is blank canvas, it is the balance of life.

Water is life.

Watch this Wild Wellbeing episode on water and the reasons why it is more important in your health and wellbeing journey than anything else.

That’s why we always tell everyone who is doing Wild Cleanses or any other cleanse — if you want big results, and a great sense of wellbeing — drink more water before, during and after the cleanse. It does make all the difference.

Make sure you join our water challenge today and increase your water intake by one glass (at least!). Report your results on our youtube or facebook pages — we look forward to hearing from you!

Have a Wild & Flowing week!

Aiste, Joel & the Wild Team

You know the feeling when you wish you had a bit your shine in your skin? A bit more silkiness in your hair? More strength in your nails? More flexibility in your joints? 

How about better digestive system? Balanced metabolism? Improved fitness recovery?

The simple and quick solution for all of the above is: Fresh Aloe Leaf. Watch the 4min video below and see why! 

We loooove using this superfood in our smoothie recipes, we also add it to our dishes, such as sushi, upstairs in the cafe.

We personally use the whole blended aloe leaf for its amazing cleansing and smoothing effects — this method is widely known for bringing balance and health into the whole being. But let’s not get carried away - watch the video below and leave a comment with your favourite ways of using aloe on our Facebook page or Youtube.

Stay Wild!

Like zingy citrus flavours? Try combining different citrus fruits together for the ultimate cleansing, rejuvenating and energizing juice mix.

This juice is extremely high in vitamin C which cleanses, flushes the toxins from the body and builds immune system. It is rich in bioflavonoids and pectin, which is anti-inflammatory and anti-allergen. High concentration of citrus regulates digestion and balances metabolism. It can be a great for weight loss.

For two portions:

2 grapefruit

3.5 oranges

2 limes

1 lemon

10 mint leaves

6g  or an inch of lemon grass

Squeeze all the fruits in the citrus juicer or a cold-press machine (do not use a centrifugal juicer as it will make your juice frothy and bitter). 

Pour an inch of the squeezed juice in a blender (just to cover the blades). Add the mint leaves and chopped up lemon grass. Blend till the mint and lemon grass is shredded into small pieces. Add the rest of the juice to the blender and pulse for 10-15seconds. You might want to strain the juice through a strainer before serving or choose to have a bittier version with pieces of mint. Add ice to taste.

 Enjoy!

With much juicy appreciation & love!

As you may know, the juicing knowledge, the whole mixology of 40+ ingredient tonic herbal tea, the superfoods and the crazy smoothie mixes that we are proud of comes from over 15 years of intensive research and experimentation. It all came together when we opened the Juicery and it condensed even more when we started offering Wild Cleanses and seeing your happy, radiant faces.

For the last three months as we sent the cleanses in all directions of London we listened, we asked questions, we observed and tweaked details and took notes to come up with a package that is nutritionally rounded, innovative, powerful – WILD – and designed specifically to bring your wellbeing to a new level in a busy, urban environment.

We are very happy to take our beloved Wild Cleanse to new heights.  We are relaunching it on the 25^th of April with maaaany new awesome perks and features.

We are introducing Pumpkin Seed Mylk late – this addition is designed to keep your protein levels nice and high. Consider it as a healthy protein shake – it is amazing for people who are active and who still need to ‘get their sh**t done’ while juice cleansing.

We are also upgrading from eco-plastic bottles to glass bottles – we love the environment, we love the experience of drinking from glass, and we are super proud of this addition. All glass bottles are returnable and reusable. Double yey!

In addition, we will be offering everyday email support, inspiration and tips while you cleansing to make sure you get the absolute best results and have the wildest time doing it. Our phone support will be there for you as well.

There are two more amazing additions to the cleanse that will make all the difference for a lot of you, but we don’t want to reveal them yet.:)

We will be covering them on our website in more detail for the next few weeks. Because they totally deserve it.

Today the inspired action for you is: what is the number of days you would be willing to go on a juice cleanse for? Let us know your answers on our Facebook page or the comments below.

With lots of juicy love and appreciation,

Wild Juicery Team
