This orange sweet potato juice tastes nothing like sweet potato. I asked my husband to try it and he didn’t even know that sweet potato was in it. With 6 to 8 oranges you can pretty much dominate the juice and still get a hint of sweet potato pie. Making this juice delicious and nutritious for everyone in your family to enjoy. Give it a try and let me know if your family can tell if sweet potato is in it?
Consuming Raw Sweet Potatoes

But, while doing my own research, I learned that sweet potatoes can be consumed raw. It’s safe and healthy to juice or add sweet potatoes to your favorite smoothy, it’s the regular potato that can’t consume raw. Now if you’ve never juiced sweet potatoes here are some resources to help put you at ease.
