Raw Juicery vs. Pressed Juicery

Last updated: April 2026

Raw Juicery and Pressed Juicery are both cold-pressed juice brands, but they differ significantly on organic certification, ingredient diversity, cleanse structure, and shipping methods. This is a transparent, ingredient-by-ingredient comparison — not a hit piece. We respect what Pressed Juicery has built, and we think you deserve the data to decide for yourself.

Quick Comparison

The Differences That Matter

1. Organic vs. Conventional Ingredients

This is the single biggest differentiator between the two brands. Every ingredient in every Raw Juicery product is USDA Certified Organic. Pressed Juicery uses a mix of organic and conventional produce.

Why does this matter? Juicing concentrates everything — vitamins and pesticide residues. A 2014 meta-analysis published in the British Journal of Nutrition found that organic crops contain 18–69% more antioxidants and four times fewer detectable pesticide residues than conventional produce [1]. The Environmental Working Group's 2026 analysis found that 75% of non-organic fruit and vegetable samples had pesticide residues, with PFAS "forever chemicals" among the most common contaminants [2].

When you're consuming the concentrated essence of 20+ pounds of produce over a 3-day cleanse, the organic distinction is the difference between amplifying benefits and amplifying chemical exposure. For a deeper breakdown, see our organic vs. non-organic juice cleanse comparison.

2. Ingredient Diversity and Functional Ingredients

Raw Juicery uses 65 unique organic ingredients across 25 flavors — including adaptogens, superfoods, and functional compounds that go beyond basic fruit and vegetable juice.

Our formulations include ingredients like spirulina, schisandra berry, activated charcoal, chlorella, wheatgrass, and specific adaptogenic blends designed for different times of day. Each juice in a cleanse is formulated for a purpose — morning greens for energy, midday blends for sustained nutrition, evening formulas for calming and repair.

Pressed Juicery's ingredient list is more conventional — primarily common fruits and vegetables like apple, lemon, kale, beet, and ginger. There's nothing wrong with these ingredients (we use them too), but the functional depth and variety is narrower.

3. Cleanse Structure: 7 Juices vs. 6

Raw Juicery cleanses include 7 juices per day. Pressed Juicery includes 6. That extra juice isn't arbitrary — it fills a gap in the daily nutrition schedule. With 7 juices spaced throughout the day, you maintain more stable blood sugar, more consistent energy, and more total nutrient intake. The difference is especially noticeable on Day 1, when hunger and energy dips are most common.

Seven juices also means more ingredient variety per day, which translates to a broader micronutrient profile. Nutritional diversity is one of the core principles of effective cleansing — your body needs different compounds for different detox pathways.

4. Never Frozen vs. Frozen Shipping

Raw Juicery juices are never frozen — they're shipped cold and arrive ready to drink. Pressed Juicery ships some products frozen, requiring thawing before consumption.

Freezing isn't catastrophic for nutrition — most vitamins survive the freeze-thaw cycle reasonably well. But ice crystal formation can affect enzymatic activity, texture, and the integrity of certain heat-sensitive compounds. More practically, frozen juice requires planning (thaw time) and changes the taste experience. Fresh cold-pressed juice has a vibrancy that freeze-thawed juice doesn't fully replicate.

5. Price

Raw Juicery cleanses cost more than Pressed Juicery — and the reasons are straightforward.

• 100% certified organic ingredients cost more than conventional
• 7 juices per day vs. 6 means more product per cleanse
• 65 unique ingredients (including specialty adaptogens and superfoods) cost more than a simpler ingredient list
• Cold shipping (never frozen) is more expensive than frozen shipping

Whether that premium is worth it depends on your priorities. If organic certification, ingredient diversity, and never-frozen freshness matter to you, the price difference reflects real differences in product quality. If you're price-sensitive and want an entry-level cleanse experience, Pressed Juicery offers a more accessible starting point.

What Both Brands Get Right

It's worth acknowledging what the brands share:

• Cold-pressed extraction: Both use hydraulic press methods that preserve nutrients better than centrifugal juicing
• HPP treatment: Both use High Pressure Processing for food safety without heat pasteurization
• Multi-day cleanse programs: Both offer structured cleanse programs with multiple juices per day
• National shipping: Both deliver directly to customers across the US

Pressed Juicery has also done something valuable for the industry: with 70+ retail locations, they've introduced millions of people to cold-pressed juice who might never have tried it otherwise. That's good for everyone in the space, including us.

Who Is Each Brand Best For?

Choose Raw Juicery if:

• Organic certification is non-negotiable for you
• You want functional ingredients (adaptogens, superfoods) beyond basic fruits and vegetables
• You prefer never-frozen juice shipped cold
• You want 7 juices per day for more stable energy during your cleanse
• You read ingredient labels and care about what's behind the marketing

Choose Pressed Juicery if:

• Budget is your primary concern
• You want to try juice from a retail store before committing to a cleanse
• Organic certification is a preference but not a requirement
• You're new to juicing and want an accessible entry point

Our Perspective

We built Raw Juicery for people who look past the marketing. Who check the ingredient list, not just the front label. Who understand that "cold-pressed" is a starting point, not a finish line — and that what goes into the press matters as much as the pressing method itself.

100% certified organic. 65 ingredients. 25 flavors. 7 juices per day. Never cooked. Never frozen. That's not a tagline — it's the product.

FAQ

Is Raw Juicery better than Pressed Juicery?

Raw Juicery uses 100% USDA Certified Organic ingredients, includes 7 juices per day (vs. 6), offers 65 unique ingredients including adaptogens and superfoods, and never freezes its products. Pressed Juicery is more affordable and has retail stores for in-person purchasing. "Better" depends on whether organic certification, ingredient diversity, and freshness are priorities for you.

Is Pressed Juicery organic?

Pressed Juicery uses a mix of organic and conventional produce. Not all ingredients carry organic certification. Raw Juicery uses 100% USDA Certified Organic ingredients across every product, with no exceptions. The distinction matters most in juice, where the extraction process concentrates both nutrients and any pesticide residues.

How many juices per day in a Raw Juicery cleanse?

Raw Juicery cleanses include 7 cold-pressed organic juices per day, each formulated for a specific time of day — energizing greens in the morning, nutrient-dense blends midday, and calming formulas in the evening. Pressed Juicery cleanses include 6 juices per day.

Is Raw Juicery juice frozen?

No. Raw Juicery juices are never frozen — they're cold-pressed, HPP-treated, and shipped cold (refrigerated). They arrive ready to drink with no thawing required. The juices have a 30–80 day refrigerated shelf life thanks to HPP, which eliminates harmful bacteria without heat or freezing.

Why is Raw Juicery more expensive than Pressed Juicery?

The price difference reflects specific product differences: 100% certified organic ingredients (vs. mixed organic/conventional), 7 juices per day (vs. 6), 65 unique ingredients including specialty adaptogens, and cold shipping (never frozen). Organic produce costs more, more juices per day means more product, and cold-chain shipping is more expensive than frozen.

What is HPP juice?

HPP (High Pressure Processing) is a food safety technology that uses extreme pressure — up to 87,000 PSI — to eliminate harmful bacteria in bottled juice without heat. Both Raw Juicery and Pressed Juicery use HPP. It preserves the vitamins, enzymes, and natural flavor that heat pasteurization destroys, while extending shelf life to 30–80 days refrigerated.

Does Pressed Juicery use HPP?

Yes — both Raw Juicery and Pressed Juicery use HPP (High Pressure Processing) for food safety. The brands differ primarily on ingredient sourcing (organic vs. conventional), number of daily juices, ingredient diversity, and shipping method (cold vs. frozen).
