Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 3 cups celery (about 4 stalks)
  • 1 green apple (cored and coarsely chopped)
  • 1 knob fresh ginger (about 1 inch)
  • ½ lemon juice (freshly squeezed, or lime juice as an alternative)

Instructions

  1. Wash: Thoroughly rinse the celery stalks, green apple, and ginger under cold water to remove any dirt or residues.
  2. Chop: Depending on your juicer, you may need to cut ingredients into smaller pieces. Core the apple and chop it coarsely. Prepare the celery and ginger as needed for your equipment.
  3. Juicer Method: Gradually feed the celery, apple, and ginger into the juicer, including celery leaves and solids to keep the juicer from clogging. Collect the juice in a container.
  4. Add Lemon Juice: Stir in the freshly squeezed half lemon or lime juice to the extracted juice for added zest and vitamin C.
  5. Serve or Store: Enjoy the juice immediately for the best freshness, or store it in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
  6. Blender Method: Place the celery, apple, and ginger into a blender and blend until smooth.
  7. Strain: Pour the blended mixture through a fine strainer, cheesecloth, or nut-milk bag to separate the juice from the pulp.
  8. Add Lemon Juice: Mix in the fresh lemon or lime juice into the strained juice.
  9. Serve or Store: Drink immediately or keep refrigerated in a closed container for no more than 24 hours to maintain freshness.

Notes

  • For maximum nutritional benefits, consume the juice fresh.
  • Including celery leaves in the juicer can enhance flavor and nutrient content but be cautious of strong herbal notes.
  • If you prefer a thicker texture, skip straining when using the blender method and consume as a green smoothie.
  • Adjust the amount of ginger and lemon juice to taste for a milder or spicier juice.
  • Use organic produce if possible to minimize exposure to pesticides.
