The Reason You Need To Start Juicing Sweet Potatoes
BY SYLVIA TOMCZAK
Unlike regular potatoes, sweet potatoes can be enjoyed raw, and drinking juiced sweet potatoes allows your body to absorb all their nutrients more easily and efficiently.
Sweet potatoes contain a bevy of nutrients that can lead to health benefits like improving immunity and vision and regulating blood sugar levels.
Moreover, sweet potato juice has a complex flavor profile that is mildly sweet, earthy, and nutty, and it has a velvety texture that can impart a creamy decadence.
Before you juice them, make sure to clean your sweet potatoes thoroughly and consider peeling them to ensure they're clean. Then, chop them into chunks and get to juicing.
The juice is delicious on its own, or you can mix it with other juices and smoothies, use it as a base for popsicles, or add it to chowders, sauces, and salad dressings.
