Instructions:

- Slice the avocado in half, remove the seed, scoop out the flesh, and cut it into chunks.
- Prepare your juicer or blender according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- Start by feeding the spinach, celery, cucumber, apples, pear, and ginger into the juicer or blender in manageable batches.
- If using a juicer, ensure all ingredients are processed through the machine to extract the juice.
- If using a blender, add a small amount of water to help blend the ingredients smoothly, then blend until you achieve a smooth consistency.
- If using a blender, you may want to strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth to extract the juice and separate it from the pulp.
- If using a blender, after straining the juice, place the juice back into the blender, add the avocado chunks, and blend again until smooth.
- If you used a juicer, you can blend the juice and avocado separately in a blender to mix thoroughly.
- Pour the juice into glasses.
- Stir well before drinking.

Pear and greens juice FAQ:
Preparation typically takes about 15-20 minutes, including washing, cutting, and juicing the ingredients.
It's best to consume the juice immediately for maximum freshness and nutrients. If needed, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Shake well before drinking.
You can substitute spinach with kale, Swiss chard, or another leafy green of your choice. Keep in mind that this may alter the flavor slightly.
The juice should be smooth and liquid. If using a blender, strain it for a smoother texture and blend in the avocado separately for creaminess.
Sweet varieties like Fuji, Honeycrisp, or Gala are ideal for a balanced flavor. Avoid tart apples as they may overpower the sweetness of the pear.
Cooking Tips:
- Use fresh, organic ingredients where possible to ensure the best flavor and nutritional value.
- Chop the fruits and vegetables into smaller pieces to make them easier to blend or juice.
- Peel the ginger root and cucumber for a smoother texture, especially if your juicer or blender isn't very powerful.
- For a colder, more refreshing drink, consider refrigerating the ingredients before juicing or adding a few ice cubes.
- Consume the juice immediately after preparing it to retain the maximum amount of nutrients.
