Clean Juice 101

Looking for an organic, clean juice bar? Check out Clean Juice, in Lexington! Owned and operated by Anna Yau and her husband, Clean Juice is a one-of-a kind certified whole food product juice bar, all the way from the fruits and vegetables, right down to the cleaning solutions used.

    Inspired to return to work after the birth of her fourth child, Yau began researching prospective business ventures that would fuel her and her husband’s passion to empower people to live healthy lifestyles. Having a background as a health and physical education teacher gives Yau a special awareness and intuition to help others, and there was definitely a need for a healthy juice bar in Lexington. Founded by organic enthusiasts Kat and Landon Eckles, in Charlotte, North Carolina, in 2015, the Clean Juice franchise reflects the mission and values that the Yaus desire to share with customers.

    Clean Juice’s offerings are not just healthy in appearance but are soul nourishing—even the preparation and delivery processes are designed to maximize nutritional value. Gaining USDA organic certification is not an easy task. There is an intricate system in place to track all organic products sold. In addition, annual accountability audits, as well as educational training are implemented to keep pace with industry innovation. Sound too good to be true?

    Both fresh and frozen whole foods are used in fresh-pressed (centrifugal juicer) and cold-pressed juices—bananas, strawberries, pineapple, beets, carrots, etc. A cold press is utilized on bottled juices to be sure that nutritional value is protected, unlike store-bought pasteurized juices. Every order is personally customized and catered to restricted diets and allergies. Vegan? Gluten-free? They have you covered! There are no hidden ingredients—everything is listed on the menu and the bar is structured so that customers can watch as entrees are prepared. There is no premixing, and substitutions are welcome. Swap one fruit for another, leave out honey or maple syrup, almond milk or milk, and care is taken to avoid cross-contamination with the use of an allergy blender. Be sure to ask the friendly “juiceristas” any questions you may have.

The Clean Juice menu has great variety!

•    Fresh- and cold-pressed juices

•    Smoothies and protein smoothies

•    Acai bowls

•    Oats bowls, avocado toast and         almond toast

•    Hot coffee and cold-brewed coffee         (organic coffee? Yes please!)

•    Wellness lattes

•    Organic cleanses (because what kind         of a cleanse is it, if it’s not organic?)

And Clean Juice is a faith-based company! "Dear friend, I hope that all is well with you and that you are as healthy in body as you are strong in spirit." 3 John 1:2 is found on Clean Juice cups and many apparel items. "While not everyone shares this belief, it is a foundational operating principle of all successful businesses to treat everyone that walks through the door as a friend and help them achieve a healthy body and strong spirit" states Yau.
