Quick and Dirty Flu Fighter | Orange, Grapefruit, Lemon, Apple and Ginger Fruit Juice

It doesn’t have to be the flu season to enjoy the Quick and Dirty Flu Fighter fresh fruit juice. This recipe comes from one of my favorite juicing books, The Healthy Juicer’s Bible by Farnoosh Brock. This is an excellent book for both the beginner and experienced juicer.

This is a delicious morning fruit juice and as I made it, I just knew it would be a favorite of mine. I love oranges and grapefruit. I added a few ice cubes and sparkling water to mine. Try this recipe and let me know what you think.


Makes approximately 20 ounces


  • 2 small-medium oranges, peeled

  • 1 small grapefruit, peeled

  • 1/2 lemon (I peel mine)

  • 1 Yellow or Macintosh apple

  • a small piece of ginger ( I used a very small piece and the juice had just a hint of ginger, just the way I like it)

Oranges have a lot of sugar in the juice and grapefruit juice doesn’t mix with some medications. It only takes a phone call to check.

Zen Dragonfly | Spinach, Lettuce, Pear, Apple, Strawberry Juice

The Zen Dragonfly comes from the book The Healthy Juicer’s Bible written by Farnoosh Brock. I highly recommend this wonderful juicing book. It has many delicious recipes.


Zen Dragonfly


Do you like strawberries in your juices? If so, that’s great, because The Zen Dragonfly consists of 8-10 strawberries. I was a little hesitant to add strawberries to this green juice, but it turned out very well.


I’m always a little cautious to put anything other than apple and/or pear into my green juices, but Farnoosh knows what she’s making here.


You can just taste the strawberries and it gives it a very good flavor. I also detected the delicious taste of the Granny Smith apple.


This drink also has a beautiful green color. You can’t go wrong here. Gorgeous, Tasty and Nutritious!


 Zen Dragonfly


Makes approximately 20 ounces


  • 2-3 cups baby or regular spinach

  • A small head of Romaine lettuce ( I used 5 or 6 big leaves)

  • 1 medium pear

  • 1 medium Granny Smith apple

  • 8-10 strawberries (sometimes mine aren’t the sweetest, but I got lucky this time)

Zen Dragonfly


Update: Buy organic strawberries or grow them yourself. Strawberries are known to be one of the most highly pesticide sprayed fruits. One report found 36 types of pesticides on strawberries. Out-of-season, imported strawberries are the most risky. But organic or homegrown strawberries are healthy. They are among the fruits and vegetables ranked highest in health-promoting antioxidants.
