Elixir Juice - Affordable Cold Pressed Juice!

I recently saw a instagram post from Tammy Tay (@ohsofickle) about Elixir Juice and I immediately clicked the link and browsed the website because I really wanted to find a company that sells affordable cold-pressed juices! 

Furthermore, after doing my research (thanks to my resourceful friends) on juice cleansing, I decided that I didn't want to go on a juice-cleanse. In case you don't know what a juice cleanse is, it's a dietary modification whereby the user consumes different types of juices only for a preferred period of time. Many cold-pressed juice companies provide a 1-day, 3-day or 5-day juice cleanse systems. These systems are also remarkably expensive. The highest price I have seen was over S$500 for a 5-day juice cleanse. Of course, there are some people out there who choose to pay that amount for their health and wellbeing. I will not make judgements on them because it's their choice and if they can afford it then why not right? Personally? I think it's way too exorbitant and I think my body (and soul, and mind, and my everything) cannot take just having juice for more than a day. I love food way too much. HAHA. 

This is why Elixir Juice is perfect for me! Just a quick disclaimer - I am NOT sponsored by Elixir Juice. I have purchased the box of 6 bottles with my own money and I genuinely love everything about this company, hence I'm dedicating a post entirely to Elixir Juice

4 main reasons on why I love Elixir Juice:
  1. Compared to other similar companies/websites, Elixir Juice juices are very affordable. Like S$5-S$7 a bottle affordable. My set of 6 juices was only slightly over S$40, and that's with delivery charges included! 
  2. The juices are described as compliments to daily meals. I love this concept! Instead of forcing the idea of juice cleansing, they encourage replacing soft drinks or other sweetened drinks with their juices. This way, your body will gradually adapt to the healthy changes that you are making and in the long run, I think it's more beneficial for your health! Another reason why I don't want to embark on a juice cleanse is because I don't want to let my body go into a "shock" mode because I'm forcing it to handle just juices for a day or more. Hence, thank you Elixir Juice for providing a platform for people like me! 
  3. The ordering and delivery process was amazing. Your order will be in packages. Each package contains 6 bottles and in each package you can choose up to 3 different types of juices (they have 32!!). So basically, you can only order in multiples of 6. 
  4. The juices taste FANTASTIC. Even those that had primarily vegetables as ingredients. Maybe I'm just used to drinking vegetable juices.  








I think I'm going to make another order now. I really love Elixir Juice! Please don't ever raise your prices okay!!!!

Hi There,

I love your website and read your article on Elixir Juice. I decided to go with them as a result. Ultimately though the reality of dealing with this company is has been stressful and miserable :-( They have:

- Failed to confirm delivery of a juice order I am owed by them, leaving me short.
- Lied about delivering the above, leaving a paying customer sat at home on a Saturday for over 5 hours.
- Broken agreements whereby their employees have literally given their 'word' to personally oversee a delivery that hasn't happened.
Ignored a paying customer hoping the problem will go away. Ignoring emails, website chats, and worst of all - one of their customers pretending he couldn't her me on the phone, and ignoring subsequent phone calls.

I think it is great the way these companies offer free samples to bloggers in exchange for a good review, however I felt you should know the reality one of your keenest readers has experienced. Are you willing to stand up for your readership? I am still owed an order from Elixir that they will not honour. That's truly awful.

Best Regards,

Jason Elliott
