This Toronto raw juice bar is set up almost like an apothecary, where owner Jessica Risi will recommend an all-natural, cold pressed juice based on whatever is ailing you. 'Keep Well' is one fresh juice made with healing ingredients like lemon, ginger and turmeric, which has been touted as a great way to ward off illness because of its "highly anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, anti-fungal, anti-bacterial, [and] detoxifying" properties. Raw Chemist currently has nine juices available, made from about 90% organic ingredients purchased from farmer's markets in the local area.
At the Raw Chemist Juice Bar, drinks are bottled and poured into cups with science-inspired packaging. This little juice shop is way more vibrant and interesting than being stuck in a high school chemistry class—not to mention everything is completely safe and super beneficial to consume.
