“Cold pressed juicing has been an evolving trend for a couple of years now and has hit its stride in New York City … Colin and I have been waiting for the perfect space to bring this trend to Saratoga and in June we were happy to come across an available storefront where The Chocolate Mill was formerly located. We are so excited to be the first cold pressed juice bar in Saratoga. Saratoga Juice Bar will allow everyone to have a great tasting and healthy drink or meal at any time of the day,” said Christel.
Saratoga Juice Bar will offer a variety of cold pressed juices, smoothies (with the option of adding supplements and/or boosters), “grab and go” healthy sandwiches and salads, as well as juice cleanses. The MacLean’s look forward to working with local farms including Kilpatrick Family Farm, a mainstay of the Saratoga Farmer’s Market for fresh fruits and vegetables.
Cold pressed juice is widely considered to be the most nutritionally complete juice, containing three to five times more vitamins, minerals, and enzymes than juice extracted any other way. Cold pressed juice extracts the juice hydraulically and not with a traditional centrifugal juicer which creates heat and significantly decreases the beneficial nutrients. Cold pressed juicing protects the enzymes and nutrients that are living in the juice.
The MacLean’s plan to open the juice bar by the end of this month. Saratoga Juice Bar is located at 382 Broadway.
