It’s the start of the new year and everyone wants to be healthy. We get it though – after the sugar, decadent foods and adult beverages consumed around the holidays, everyone needs a refresh.

Luckily, metro Detroit is filled to the brim with everyone’s favorite healthy alternative meals – juices and smoothies! Here are some of our favorite places to grab juices and smoothies in Detroit.

Our Favorite Local Juice & Smoothie Chains

Beyond Juicery + Eatery has locations all over metro Detroit, plus one in Eastern Market and an upcoming location in New Center. With sixteen unique smoothie flavors and eight fresh, bottled juices, Beyond has quickly become the area’s favorite place to grab a healthy breakfast. On the smoothie side, we recommend the Colombian Plus for breakfast. It has coffee in it, so you can skip your morning cup (or not!).

Drought has four metro Detroit locations and is sold at local grocery stores. Their organic raw juice comes in a chic glass bottle that you’ll definitely want to keep. Drought even has a location in Parker’s Alley next to the Shinola Hotel, so feel free to grab a Green #2 before you stroll around downtown.

Freshii has more than your favorite lunch bowls. They also serve 8 smoothies and juices that will keep you coming back. Their Green Genius juice is perfect for staying focused, and their Recoverii smoothie is the ultimate pick me up after the excess of holiday drinking.

Juice & Smoothie Bars in Downtown Detroit

Balence Juice Bar blends smoothies and presses fresh juices above Shelby street on a glass bridge. How’s that for an interesting space! In addition to some classic juices and smoothies, you can order shots, craft-mixed juices, simple juices and smoothie bowls. The Banana Nut Butter smoothie will keep you full until lunch, and the Resistance shot will keep you from getting sick this winter!

Kwench Juice Cafe is new in town and located in the Chrysler building near Campus Martius Park. If you really want to kick it into high gear after the holidays, order their juice cleanse (your choice of four juices plus one smoothie) and you will feel good as new in no time.

Meta Physica Wellness Center is located slightly out of downtown in Detroit’s Corktown neighborhood. Featuring one of the most beautiful juice bars we’ve ever seen, you can also come here for massages, waxing, saunas and acupuncture.

If you find yourself in Midtown, Juice Joint has affordable and tasty juices and smoothies, plus the most creative menu board we’ve seen in a while. With smoothie flavors like Maui Waui, Sweet Tart and Tutti Frutti, you’re going to love this place.

Juices & Smoothies throughout Metro Detroit

Hamtramck’s Boostan Cafe is known for it’s delicious and budget-friendly Mediterranean menu, but those in the know head there for their fresh-pressed juices. Try fun flavors like Guava and Pomegranate Grape.

Wanna Shake? in Troy has become a favorite for meal replacement shakes and smoothies. Whey protein is added to almost every option, so expect to be fully charged afterwards. Morning Sunrise is a trim and low-cal smoothie that is sure to satisfy.
