Good news for juicers on the go. The Dallas-based cold pressed juice store, Roots Juices, is opening a location in Lakewood Shopping Center in the next couple weeks.

Dallasite Brent Rodgers opened Roots Juices in Oak Lawn a couple years ago, and he expanded in Atlanta and Arkansas last year. This year he’s opening a location in Lakewood and another in Fort Worth this summer.

He says he signed a lease for the space next door to the T-Shop in November and construction on the kitchen is already finished. If all goes as planned, the finishing touches should be completed in the next couple weeks.

This location is significantly bigger than the Oak Lawn location, so aside from cold pressed juices Roots will also serve coffee, tea and “coffee-inspired drinks” such as lattes.

Rodgers says Roots’ cold pressed juices tend to be more veggie-based than fruit-based, and most people drink them as an after-lunch pick-me-up. If you’re not sure what’s the big deal about cold pressed juices, check out this blog on their website.
