Prep Time: 10 minutes minutes
Total Time: 10 minutes minutes
Servings: 2
- 1 bunch kale lacinato or curly
- 1 lemon peeled
- 1 apple fuji or gala
- ½ cucumber
- 1½ cup water
Blender Instructions
Combine all washed produce in the blender. Pour water over the produce.
Blend on high until completely pureed. You may need to stop the blender and give everything a quick stir to get things moving.
Place a fine mesh strainer (or cheesecloth) over a glass bowl and pour the mixture into the strainer. Stain the mixture so that all the juice falls into the bowl, leaving only the pulp behind.
Juicer Instructions
Cut the cucumber and apples into small pieces that will be able to fit into your juicer.
Slowly feed the ingredients into your juicer. Add water to the juice, and mix to serve. Use ice cubes for a refreshing summer cool drink!
- Adjusting Sweetness: If you have a sweet tooth, I'd recommend adding agave nectar to your juice once you're finished.
- Optional Ingredients: Add a one-inch piece of fresh ginger for an added kick of flavor. Add one teaspoon of apple cider vinegar to reap some additional health benefits.
- Prepping Ingredients: It's important to wash everything thoroughly before making your juice.
