cru juice

brought some friends from out of town over the summer to cru on 17th between sightseeing & exploring calgary, and i knew they'd like cru as they're health nuts and love trendy interiors. i've had the chia bowls a few times, i wouldn't say they're filling enough to be a meal, but it's a nice snack. like others have mentioned, the juice prices can seem a bit steep, but in terms of cold-pressedjuiceson the market, it's pretty much on par. i'm a big fan of the charcoal lemonade, although i have tried 50 shades of green and a few other seasonal drinks they've had. i'd check this place out if you're a fan of cold-pressed juice or just want a healthy snack!

i loved the interior here and theirjuiceswere also good ... but that could also be because i played it safe and picked outjuicesthat sounded good to me. there isn't much to really say. they also have food options which i want to return for. prices differ depending on the juice and i believe the cheapest is $4. i know i know, $4 for w2 (which is practically lemon honey water) is pretty steep. buuuut its good to treat yourself once in a while :p

hello lovelies! today i wanted to share the one day juice cleanse i did thanks to cru juice, a local cold-pressed juicery right here in calgary. those of you following along on snapchat will know that after all the holiday eats and treats i thought it was time to kick it into gear and start off a clean eating month with a juice cleanse. i absolutely love cru juice for this! theirjuiceshave the most fun names, and are so delicious. for the one day cleanse you get to pick 6 juices; 2 green, 1 fruit, 1 root, 1 nut, & 1 lemonade. thejuicescome with fun labels so you know exactly which order to drink them in :) now as for the experience itself, after the first 3 i did feel a bit shaky and low on energy. however, i have to say thesejuiceskept me full after drinking each one. but the best of all is that my blood sugar started to stabilize itself, for the first time in forever! so for those of you looking for that restart and reboot to end the summer off strong, definitely check them out

hipster little place on 17th. personally i don't get cold pressedjuicesso maybe i don't see the appeal and think it's sooo amazing. i think it's a little expensive ($9-11 for a bottle?) but i guess it's a nice splurge every once in a while.

i really like the cute little space inside. and they let you try thejuicesbefore you purchase one, which is amazing.

have you noticed that everyone seems to be on a cold pressed juice kick? betweenjuicesand cleanses, it seems like a new juice shop is popping up every week. so, with the opening of a cru juice just around the block from my condo, i figured i would give it a shot. fyi – if you’re feeling lazy, they also deliver.
