Many people drink Goji berry juice on a daily basis to help to maintain their health. Because Goji juice contains such high levels of vitamins and minerals it boosts your body’s immune system and gives you more energy, as well as protecting you from many common health problems. However, not everyone likes the taste of Goji juice or simply gets bored with it, so using it in recipes can make it easier to take your daily dose of Goji juice.

Although Goji juice freezes well it is not yet clearly understood whether doing so diminishes its potency and health benefits. Therefore, if you are going to use Goji juice in frozen desserts it is best to only use leftover juice that would otherwise go to waste. It makes great tasting lollipops, which you can pep up by adding lemon or ginger before you freeze it. If you use ginger, do so by steeping some slices of ginger in a little hot water. Let the water cool and remove the ginger slices before mixing the gingery water with the leftover Goji juice and freezing it into lollipops.

Not everyone likes the taste of Goji juice, so mixing it with other fruit to make a smoothie is a good way for those people to drink their Goji juice without it being an unpleasant experience. Goji berry juice mixes particularly well with apples or pears. Add a little ginger or lemon to the mix and you have a great tasting smoothie that will also help to detox your liver.

People on diets have been using fruit juice on their cereal instead of milk to help reduce their fat intake for years. Goji juice is tastes good when used this way. However, it does not go well with all cereals so try a small portion first.

You can make a nice syrup by simply bringing a little goji juice and some sugar or honey to a simmer in a pan until it thickens. It tastes nice poured over a fruit salad or on some vanilla ice cream.
