Beet Pear Juice: Recipe and How to Make It

DetoxWater Editorial Team•Published November 5, 2026

Beet pear juice is a blend of fresh beet and pear that takes 10 minutes to prepare and makes 2 servings.

What is beet pear juice?

Beet pear juice combines earthy beet with sweet, juicy pear. It is a fruit-and-vegetable variation of beet juice that you can make with a juicer or blender.

A juicer separates much of the pulp, while a blender keeps it unless you strain the drink. Neither method requires steeping.

How do you make beet pear juice?

Prep time: 10 minutes
Yield: 2 servings

Ingredients

  • 150 g (about 1 cup) raw beet, scrubbed and diced
  • 180 g (about 1¼ cups) ripe pear, cored and diced
  • 240 ml (1 cup) cold water

Measure the beet and pear after trimming. Choose a ripe pear for a sweeter drink, and leave its skin on if you like. You can peel the beet if its skin is tough.

Juicer method

  1. Wash your hands, the beet and the pear under running water, and clean the juicer before use.
  2. Cut the beet and pear into pieces that fit your juicer’s feed chute.
  3. Pass the pieces through the juicer, alternating beet and pear.
  4. Stir the juice with the water, divide between 2 glasses and serve.

Blender method

  1. Wash your hands, the beet and the pear under running water, and clean the blender before use.
  2. Add the diced beet, pear and water to the blender.
  3. Blend until as smooth as your blender allows. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve if you prefer a thinner drink, or leave the pulp in for more fiber.
  4. Divide between 2 glasses and serve.

The blender version is thicker than the juicer version, especially if you keep the pulp. The finished volume varies with the produce and how much liquid your equipment extracts. Serve over ice if you prefer it colder.

What does beet pear juice do?

Beet pear juice provides fluid and nutrients from its ingredients. Raw beets contain folate and potassium, while raw pears contribute fiber. Beets also contain naturally occurring nitrates, which the body can convert into nitric oxide, a compound involved in blood vessel function.

If you blend the listed amounts and keep all the pulp, each of the 2 servings provides approximately 84 kcal and 4.9 g of fiber. These are estimates based on the raw ingredients. A strained or juiced serving will retain less fiber, and its nutrient content will vary with extraction.

Beet pear juice can support hydration, but it is not a detox treatment. The liver and kidneys do most of the body’s detoxification, while the lungs and gut help eliminate waste; sweat removes only trace amounts. The drink has not been established as a treatment for high blood pressure or any other condition.

When is the best time to drink beet pear juice?

Drink beet pear juice whenever it suits your routine, such as with breakfast or as part of a snack. There is no established best time to drink it for detoxification.

If you find a full glass uncomfortable on an empty stomach, try a smaller serving with food. The unstrained blender version is more filling because it retains the produce’s pulp and fiber.

How should you store beet pear juice?

Drink freshly made beet pear juice promptly, or refrigerate it in a clean, covered container and drink it within 24 hours. Stir or shake it before serving if the liquid separates.

Do not leave it at room temperature for more than 2 hours. Discard it if it smells sour or looks spoiled, but remember that harmful bacteria do not always change a drink’s smell or appearance. Homemade beet pear juice is not pasteurized, so clean equipment and refrigeration matter.

Who should be careful with beet pear juice?

People prone to calcium oxalate kidney stones should ask a clinician or dietitian about beets, which are high in oxalates. If you have kidney disease or have been told to limit potassium, check whether this drink fits your eating plan.

If you have diabetes, consider the pear’s natural carbohydrates when planning a serving; the unstrained blender version retains more fiber than the juiced version. People taking blood pressure medication who notice dizziness or unusually low readings should contact their clinician rather than change medication on their own.

Pregnant people, young children, older adults and people with weakened immune systems are more vulnerable to foodborne illness and should ask a clinician whether fresh, unpasteurized juice is appropriate. Beet pear juice can turn urine or stool reddish, but seek medical advice if you are unsure whether the color is from beets or it persists.
