About the Owners
Jordan and Julian's world travels have given them inspiration in opening Bloomington's first 100% organic juice bar. They have been in search of alkaline-based, organic and delicious fruits and vegetables to bring back to Soul Juice. Throughout their journey, they learned of the healing powers that Earth's natural products have to offer and were determined to share their love for health with the rest of the community by creating "Juice for the Soul". If there is one thing that is clear after speaking to the owners, they have an intense passion for healthy and tasty food! The owners stated, "You only have one body, so you might as well take care of it." This is the energy we needed in this town. After just over a month of opening, this Bloomington organic juice bar is already a big hit!
This highly Instagram-able juice bar located right in the square at 122 W 6th St, Bloomington, IN features an array of organic, freshly pressed juices, smoothies, açaí bowls, and even healthy waffles! All of their items have been carefully selected and each aim to provide unique benefits such as alkalization, energy boost, or immunity. Hang out in the comfy swings while you're sipping on a smoothie.
Both owners follow an organic, plant-based lifestyle that they feel a passion to share with others. One of their discoveries along their travels was sea moss sourced from Ireland. This sea moss is extremely high in nutrients and contains 92 of the 102 essential minerals that your body needs! Talk about a health boost! They are one of the only places to offer this extremely beneficial ingredient to numerous items on the menu. Their top-selling smoothie, “Berries on Berries” includes sea moss. Most customers don’t even know they are getting the added benefits due to the natural deliciousness of the ingredients in the smoothie.
Health Shots
If you’re in need of a quick boost of energy or some detoxification, Soul Juice has your back with their health shots. These may not be the type of shots you are used to, but I promise, they will make you feel renewed and energized early in the morning or even throughout the day. Unlike the traditional shots college students are throwing back on Friday nights, this won't make you feel tired and ill the morning after. Choose from options like “Terrific Tumeric," perfect for digestion and anti-inflammatory purposes, or “The Bodyguard” for immune-boosting powers, something we all need as the weather changes and flu season approaches!
Açaí Bowls
We were lucky to try three different açaí bowls made with organic fruit and alkaline toppings. Why Alkaline? Jordan and Julian both live by an alkaline diet, which helps with your body’s ability to absorb nutrients and leads to a healthy mind and a healthy body. Everything on the menu is alkaline based, so the only thing you have to think about is whether you're craving an açaí bowl or a smoothie!

Fancy Toast
Who doesn't love a good avocado toast for breakfast? Soul Juice offers a few different options of toasts such as avocado watermelon radish toast, or for those of you with a sweet tooth, try the banana honey-nut toast topped with fresh almond butter and bananas! All toasts come with options of gluten-free bread and toppings can be substituted for those with allergies.
Waffles and Other Treats!
For my lactose-intolerant people, or just those trying to avoid dairy, all of their milk and nut butters are dairy-free!
Their waffles are made with spelt flour and are low glycemic! These are topped with fresh fruit and locally sourced maple syrup that is available for purchase at Soul Juice! If you’re ever craving delicious waffles and want to feed your body the nutrients it needs, this is your place to go! Waffles are always good. But knowing you can eat them guilt-free adds extra deliciousness!

To make things even better they are offering $1 off to students on Tuesdays and Thursdays, with proof of a student ID, and $1 off any item if you show them you follow their Instagram, @juicemysoul! They even have a rewards system that racks up points with every purchase to receive future deals and savings.
