- 1 Granny Smith apple or any large tart apple
- 1 bunch curly kale about 5 oz
- 5 celery ribs trimmed
- ½ large English cucumber peeled
- 1- inch piece of fresh ginger root peeled
- 1 small lemon juiced
- A handful of fresh flat-leaf parsley about 1 oz
Step 1: Prepare Your Ingredients
Step 2: Chop and Dice
Roughly chop your apple, cucumber, and celery into manageable pieces for your juicer or blender. Don’t worry too much about the size; it all gets pureed. Just ensure everything is roughly even for consistency!
Step 3: Juice It Up!
If you’re using a juicer, simply feed the chopped ingredients into the machine. For a blender, toss everything in along with a cup of water—this boosts the liquids and helps your blender work its magic. Blend until smooth.
Step 4: Strain (Optional)
Step 5: Add Lemon and Parsley
Creating your perfect batch involves a bit of finesse and some insider tips:
Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresher veggies yield a tastier juice.
Don’t Skip the Sweetness: Adding fruit balances the earthy greens.
Experiment with Herbs: Basil or mint can create a delightful twist.
Drink Immediately: For maximum nutrients, consume right after making.
Prep Ahead: Chop your ingredients the night before for a quick morning prep!
