Description

This healthy green juice recipe uses just seven ingredients and takes 15 minutes to whip up. And, unlike most green juice recipes that taste pretty bad, this sweet green juice tastes phenomenal and will have you going back for seconds.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 medium granny smith apples
  • 6 stalks celery
  • 1 medium persian cucumber
  • 5 stalks de-stemmed kale
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice (optional)
  • 1/8 tsp celtic sea salt
  • 3 cups water (add an extra 1 cup if needed)

Instructions

  1. Prep the fruits and veggies. Begin by washing the apples, celery, persian cucumber, and kale. Make sure to wash the celery well, as dirt tends to get stuck in the cracks. Next, chop the apples, celery, and cucumber into bite-sized cubes.
  2. Blend the juice. Add the kale at the bottom of the blender, followed by the chopped apples, celery, cucumber, lemon juice, salt, and water. Turn the blender on low, slowly ramping up the speed to medium-high. Let the juice blend for 3 minutes until smooth. 
  3. Strain. Pour the juice into a nut milk bag and strain over a glass bowl or large jar. Once the juice is strained, pour it into a glass jar and store it in the fridge. 
  4. Store. The juice keeps well for up to 5 days. Quick note, the juice will naturally separate after a few days, just give it a good shake, and it’ll emulsify again.
