Garden green juice is a refreshing and nutritious beverage, packed with vitamins and minerals from fresh vegetables and fruits. This juice is perfect for a morning energy boost or a healthy addition to your meal plan. Made with apples, cucumbers, kale, and parsley, it’s not only delicious but also detoxifying and hydrating.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Apples: Core the apples and cut them into quarters.
- Cucumbers: Cut the cucumbers into chunks. If your juicer struggles with larger pieces, consider peeling the cucumbers first, although the peels are nutrient-rich.
- Kale: If you haven't already, trim the tough stems from the kale leaves to make juicing easier.
- Parsley: Remove the larger stems and use just the leafy parts.
- Set up your juicer according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- Start by juicing the apples. They tend to be more fibrous and may help push the other ingredients through the juicer.
- Follow with the cucumbers, as their high water content will help keep the juicer from clogging.
- Add the kale gradually, mixing it with the cucumber juice to avoid overloading the juicer.
- Finally, add the fresh parsley.
- Pour the juice into a large pitcher or bowl and stir well to combine all the flavors.
- Pour the freshly made garden green juice into glasses. If desired, garnish with a small sprig of parsley or a slice of cucumber for a decorative touch.
- For best results, consume immediately to take advantage of the freshest flavors and highest nutrient content. If you need to store the juice, keep it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
Tips:
- Choose organic ingredients where possible to reduce pesticide exposure.
- Wash all produce thoroughly before using.
- Use a high-quality juicer to make sure you're extracting the maximum amount of juice and nutrients.
- For a sweeter juice, select a sweeter variety of apples, like Fuji or Gala.
- Add a small piece of ginger or a squeeze of lemon juice for a zesty kick.
- If you prefer a smoother juice, strain the juice through a nut milk bag or fine mesh sieve to remove the pulp.
- Serve immediately over ice for maximum freshness and nutrient retention.
- Store any leftover juice in an airtight container in the refrigerator and consume within 24 hours.
