E
very day, Method cold presses and
bottles their own juices using a $30,000
state-of-the-art cold presser. The presser
allows them to remove most of the oxygen
and preserve the nutrients. These cold
pressed juices are the perfect snack to
give you a boost of energy, hydrate after
a workout, use all day as a “cleanse”, or
sneak more fruit and vegetables into your
diet. During the winter months, I love to get
my juices heated up. The “Revival” juice is
amazing, and it is even better hot, along with
seasonal favorites “Pear Cider” and “Drive.”
Another pro tip for the cold winter months
— ask the staff to pour one of their “Vitality
Shots” into hot water and it’s the perfect
healthy tea!
There are a couple different options if you
choose to try a juice cleanse. Their “Cleanse
Kit 1” is better for beginners because it has
some fruit juices while “Cleanse Kit 2” has
more green juices. I prefer to build my own
cleanse kit and choose from whatever is in
their fridge when I stop in. Each cleanse kit
consists of six bottles of juice pressed fresh
right here in Spokane! The idea behind a
juice cleanse is that you are fasting for 24
hours while still getting the vitamins and
minerals your body needs. I try to cleanse
a couple times a year and I always wake
up feeling so refreshed and more aware of
my body. After cleansing, I find that I don’t
crave sweets as much and it helps me make
healthier choices.
