Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Wash all the produce thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt and pesticides.
- Dry the produce with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
- Apple: Core and cut into quarters (no need to peel unless preferred).
- Carrot: Peel and chop into smaller pieces.
- Celery: Cut the stalks into smaller, manageable pieces.
- Cucumber: Cut into chunks (no need to peel unless preferred).
- Kale: Remove the tough stems, and roughly chop the leaves.
- Lime: Peel the lime and cut into segments.
- Orange: Peel the orange and cut into segments.
- Parsley: Measure out a cup of loosely packed fresh parsley.
- Spinach: Measure out a cup of fresh spinach.
- Feed the ingredients one by one into the juicer, starting with the softer produce (like spinach and parsley) and following with the harder produce (like carrots and apples).
- Alternate between hard and soft ingredients to ensure proper extraction and prevent clogging.
- Collect the juice in a glass or jug positioned under the spout.
- Combine all chopped ingredients into the blender.
- Add a small amount of water (1/4 to 1/2 cup) to help with blending.
- Blend on high speed until smooth.
- Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve, cheesecloth, or nut milk bag to remove the pulp. Press down to extract as much juice as possible.
- Stir the juice to ensure an even mix of flavors.
- Taste the juice and adjust for any preference, if needed (e.g., add a splash of water if it’s too strong).
- Pour the juice into a glass.
- Garnish with a sprig of parsley or a slice of lime/orange if desired.
- Serve fresh and enjoy immediately for optimal nutrients and flavor.
Tips:
- Wash all the ingredients thoroughly to remove any dirt or pesticides.
