Detoxing with various beverages is a great way to help give your body the nutrients it’s really craving! You can give your digestive system a break from having to break down and digest food. We made a list of detox drinks for you that can be incorporated into any detox program you’re following!
#1.Detox Smoothie
Here’s a way to make a simple smoothie that has massive detox potential. Starting with a base of spinach is always a good step, and they’ve made it taste good by adding pineapple juice and lemon.
#2.Ayurveda Detoxifying Tea
They refer to this as a tea, but it might be unlike other teas you’ve tried, since you don’t steep it from a tea bag. It’s made from herbs and seeds that you boil together and then drink.
#3.Green Smoothie
Anytime they add avocado to the mix you know you’re going to get a smooth texture, healthy fat, and a soft flavor. They also include cucumber for its hydration properties so you’ll be able to flush out more toxins. They even show you how to keep this recipe vegan, which also keeps it dairy free, and also makes it Paleo friendly.
#4.Pomegranate Pineapple Lemon Juice
Pomegranate is surging and popularity recently, and it’s not surprising to see why. It’s a great detox food, containing more antioxidants than green tea. Green tea has pretty much set the benchmark as far as antioxidants go, so this is pretty impressive.
#5.Detox Blueberry Fruit Smoothie
Blueberries do the heavy lifting on this detox smoothie, with all of their antioxidant power. Bananas lend their support, adding fiber and potassium to the mix, and there’s also cranberry juice which has a cleansing effect, and can even be used to treat a urinary tract infection.
#6.Citrus Green Detox Smoothie
Most of the time smoothies don’t contain tea in them, but they’ve decided to use the granddaddy of all teas, green tea. This means you’re going to get plenty of detoxification going due to the antioxidants it contains, but you’ll also help speed up your metabolism because of the EGCG. The addition of citrus fruits only adds to the vitamins you’re getting, and makes it taste better.
#7.Citrus Smoothies
This is going to be a big boom of citrusy flavor, but that’s not all it contains. A banana is in there to insure that you’re getting potassium into the body, as well as fiber to keep things moving. Your two basic detoxifying organs are the liver and the colon and this seems to appeal to both of them at the same time.
#8.Cranberry Bliss Detox Smoothie
Cranberry gets into the title here, but there are plenty of other fruits and ingredients that help get you to your detox goal. Cranberries have long been known for their astringent properties, especially when it comes to the liver. Here they get blended up with pears, apples, and turmeric spice so your body is in for a treat.
#9.Beet Juice Smoothie
Raw beets are better for you than the pickled kind you find in the store, and your liver will definitely be thanking you when it starts filtering out this smoothie. There’s also a banana in here so it’s not just beet flavored. In fact the pineapple is going to give this a sweetness that pretty much trumps the beets, and makes it very palatable as well as good for you.
#10.Detox Beet And Carrot Smoothie
The beets alone would have been enough to call this a detox drink, but they went and added a lot of other antioxidant-rich foods, including green tea. You’re also benefiting from the anti-aging and cancer-preventing properties of the carrot. The grapes also contain Vitamin C so you’ll be helping your immune system, making this a great drink for the cold winter months when everyone is getting the flu around you.
#11.Dieters Dream Water
Sometimes it’s alright to keep things simple, especially when you’re detoxing. This recipe is basically water that has different cleansing fruits and vegetables soaking in it. The nutritional aspects of these ingredients will be absorbed by the water, and it’s recommended to let this sit overnight for best results. The nice thing is that you can keep refilling the pitcher so you get the most value for your money and use up as much of the ingredients as possible.
#12.Drink Your Veggies Pizza
When we first heard of the idea of drinking a pizza, we were a little skeptical. But the more we thought about it, it makes sense. Wrapping your mind around the idea of helping the body with the flavors of pizza is step one. But once you see the ingredient listing you’ll see that it’s a super food power play here. The lycopene from the tomatoes is the biggest factor, but your body gets carotenoids from the peppers.
#13.Golden Detox Drink
Turmeric is not only a metabolism boosting spice, it also contains detoxifying power, helping the liver break down toxic chemicals. Ginger also adds cleansing qualities, and organic lemon juice with cayenne pepper is reminiscent of the detox lemonade diet.
#14.Grapefruit Cado Sunrise Smoothie
Grapefruit juice all by itself makes for a good detoxifying drink, so when you start doctoring it up with other superfoods you know you’ve got a winner in the making. Here they’ve used avocado, so you’re getting the benefits it brings, like healthy fat and potassium. There’s also banana, strawberry, and orange juice, so you’ve got plenty of vitamins and minerals to help your body get clean.
#15.Green Lemonade
Sometimes it’s easy to forget how the body responds to all of these good things for it. Here’s a breakdown: The ginger prepares your body to be more receptive to the other items in this ade. The kale comes through and gives your body a dose of phytonutrients. The lettuce also contains plenty of goodness for you, and the apple needs no introduction.
#16.Lemon Ginger Detox Drink
It doesn’t take a lot of bells and whistles to help the body detox. This one lists its ingredients right in the title, it simply combines lemon and ginger with water so your stomach can get ready for the food you’ll eat that day. This is a great drink to enjoy in the morning when you first wake up, about 30 minutes before you eat breakfast. It’s a great idea to do a regular cleansing of the body instead of simply bombarding it with processed foods and letting toxins accumulate.
#17.Love Your Greens Juice
If you loathe the idea of eating your greens, this recipe is designed to get you to like them again. Since you won’t have to chew them up, just drink them down, you can get all of your greens in just a few seconds. But the other part of this recipe is that they want you to enjoy your greens, so they’ve added some lemon to help the greens taste better.
#18.Love Your Liver Juice
The liver is the crux to your detoxing program, so anything that makes it happy is going to provide you with the results you seek. Here they’ve singled out the liver in this juice, and are sending massive amounts of vitamins and minerals that are specifically geared towards helping it function optimally.
#19.Low Carb Green Smoothie
Remember the wheat grass craze that hit the health food scene years ago? It’s pretty much died down since then, but the fact remains that it’s super good for you and has tons of detox features to it. Here they’re mixing it with spinach, can’t go wrong there, and they’ve upped the taste factor by adding some stevia as well as almond butter and coconut water.
#20.Mango Ginger Lemonade
Ginger is a great healing food, so anytime you feel that your body needs to calm itself down, you can turn to it for support. It helps the other foods around it get more properly absorbed by the body. That’s why you’ll see it several times in this list. It amplifies all of the health benefits from the other superfoods. Here’s they’ve mixed it with mango, not just for the amazing flavor, but for the alkalizing effect it has on the body.
#21.Matcha Mango Pineapple Smoothie
The matcha in the title means that you’re getting the real deal green tea that is used in Japanese tea ceremonies. Talk about a big boost of antioxidants, this smoothie can’t help but be green because of the tea. The pineapple is a nice touch, and the mango really lends a hand with additional vitamins and nutrients that are tough to find in other fruit choices.
#22.Natural Daily Detox Remedy Drink
This is a detoxifying drink that you can use each day, rather than a one-off beverage. It’s quite simple, and involves just two mandatory ingredients. They say you should add Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) with lemon juice to water. They recommend getting a brand of ACV that has “the mother” in it.
#23.Orange Surprise
Only four ingredients in this recipe means that they’re keeping it very wholesome, and only foods that are known to help cleanse the body have been invited to the exclusive party. Surprise! There’s no oranges here. They’re referring to the color of the drink caused by the carrots.
#24.Rainbow Veggie Juice

In this case it’s Indian gooseberry, aka aamla, that is used as a base. The scientific research is starting to back up what drinkers of the tea have been saying for a long time. Studies on rats show that this can help lower blood sugar levels. A huge boost to the body, and the lemon also gives a nice astringent effect as well.
#28.Super Hydration Juice
Most Americans are dehydrated to some extent due not only to the lack of water intake, but also the drinking of dehydrating beverages like coffee and soda. Here’s a way to introduce hydration back into the equation, boosting metabolism, flushing toxins, and providing nutrients from ingredients like strawberries and apples. Keep it organic for better detoxifying effects.
#29.Whole Food Spicy Green Juice
You’re using a copious amount of it, and adding in other ingredients like cucumbers and ginger to make sure that you get a well-rounded experience.
