NYC, NOHOPure Green, top probiotic juices in New York

What we ate

Pure Green specialises in açai bowls, juices and smoothies. They offer five different kinds of açai bowl and one pitaya bowl. I picked the Coconut and Chia bowl which is an açai base blended with mango, pineapple, banana and coconut water and then topped with apple, blueberries, coconut and their hemp granola. I asked to switch the apple for strawberries on top and I think it tasted even better. The consistency of their bowls is good and thick and the portion size very fair.

I wanted to order their Avocado Smash toast with fresh lemon juice, Himalayan salt, scallions, cucumber and radish, but unfortunately they were out of avocado and waiting on a delivery. So I chose a shot called the Cherry Bomb with cherry, probiotics, Himalayan salt and filtered water for a concentrate of nutrients instead. You have to be used to the sharp taste of shots and concentrated ingredients, but I liked it.

The little things that make a difference…

The open counter and large open fridges make the space super colourful and bright. One of their specialties is cold pressed juice which means that they press the fruit or veg without heat to retain all of their nutrients.

Pure Green supports local organic farms and only use non-GMO organic and in-season produce.

What we’d go back for…

One thing I appreciated is that they try to make grabbing a fresh juice as convenient as possible. You can order online to have juice delivered direct to your door and there’s an online subscription program.
