Ingredients
- 2 cups spinach
- 1 cucumber, chopped
- 1 green apple, cored
- 1/2 lemon, juiced
- 1 inch ginger, peeled
- 1 cup water
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all the ingredients needed for the Spinach Cucumber Green Juice. This includes 2 cups of fresh spinach, 1 cucumber (chopped), 1 green apple (cored), the juice of 1/2 lemon, 1 inch of peeled ginger, and 1 cup of water.
- Wash the spinach thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt or impurities. Shake off excess water and set it aside.
- Next, prepare the cucumber. Wash it well, then chop it into smaller pieces to make it easier to blend.
- Take the green apple, remove the core, and cut it into quarters. There's no need to peel the apple, as the skin contains beneficial nutrients.
- Peel the ginger using a vegetable peeler or the edge of a spoon to remove the skin. Cut it into smaller pieces to facilitate blending.
- In a blender, combine the spinach, chopped cucumber, apple quarters, ginger pieces, lemon juice, and 1 cup of water. Ensure that the ingredients are well-distributed in the blender for even blending.
- Blend the mixture on high speed until it reaches a smooth consistency. This should take about 30-60 seconds, depending on your blender's power.
- Once blended, check the consistency of the juice. If it is too thick for your liking, you can add more water and blend again until you achieve your desired consistency.
- To serve, strain the juice through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a pitcher or glass to remove any pulp, if preferred. This will give you a smoother juice.
- Pour the juice into two glasses and enjoy immediately for the best taste and nutritional benefits. You can also garnish with a slice of cucumber or a sprig of mint for an added touch.
Tips
- Always use fresh, organic produce to maximize nutritional value and flavor.
- If possible, use a high-powered blender to ensure a smooth, well-integrated juice.
- For an extra nutrition boost, use cold water or add a few ice cubes while blending.
- Drink the juice immediately after preparation to preserve maximum nutrients and enzymes.
- If you prefer a less pulpy juice, strain through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth.
- Experiment with the ratio of ingredients to find your perfect taste balance.
- Store any leftover juice in an airtight container in the refrigerator and consume within 24 hours.
- Consider adding a small amount of honey if you want a touch of sweetness without compromising the health benefits.
