Ingredients

Scale

Primary Ingredients:

  • 2 cups (480 milliliters) fresh spinach
  • 1 green apple, cored and chopped
  • 1 cucumber, peeled and sliced
  • 1 kiwi, peeled

Supporting Ingredients:

  • 1/2 lemon, juiced
  • 1/2 inch (1.25 centimeters) fresh ginger, peeled

Liquid and Optional Ingredients:

  • 1 cup (240 milliliters) cold water or coconut water
  • Ice cubes

Instructions

  1. Assemble all green ingredients on a clean cutting board, thoroughly rinsing each component under cool running water to eliminate potential dirt or residue.
  2. Carefully slice cucumber, kiwi, and ginger into small, uniform pieces to facilitate smooth blending and optimize juice extraction.
  3. Transfer chopped spinach, green apple, cucumber, kiwi, ginger, and freshly squeezed lemon juice into a high-powered blender.
  4. Add measured water and activate the blender, processing ingredients on high speed until a completely homogeneous liquid forms with zero visible fragments.
  5. For an ultra-refined texture, position a fine mesh strainer over a clean container, gradually pouring the blended mixture through the sieve and applying gentle pressure with a silicone spatula to maximize liquid extraction.
  6. Select a tall glass, optionally fill with ice cubes to enhance refreshment, and carefully pour the vibrant green juice to the brim.
  7. Elevate presentation by garnishing with a delicate mint sprig or a thin lemon wheel, creating an aesthetically pleasing and inviting beverage ready to be enjoyed immediately.

Notes

  • Customize your green juice by swapping out ingredients based on seasonal availability or personal taste preferences.
  • Remove seeds and tough stems from fruits and vegetables to ensure a smoother blending experience and prevent bitter flavors.
  • Boost nutrient density by adding a handful of fresh herbs like parsley or mint, which can enhance both flavor and nutritional value.
  • Consider using organic produce to minimize pesticide exposure and potentially improve the overall quality of your green juice.
