Green juice recipe
Green juice is a beverage made by blending or juicing various green vegetables and sometimes fruits. The primary ingredients in green juice are typically leafy greens like kale, spinach, Swiss chard, and collard greens, but it can also include ingredients like celery, cucumber, green apples, and lemon. The resulting drink is rich in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and phytonutrients, making it a popular choice for those looking to increase their intake of nutrients and promote overall health. Green juice is often associated with detoxification, weight loss, and providing a quick and convenient way to consume a variety of vegetables in a single glass.
Ingredients
- 2 cups of leafy greens (spinach, kale, Swiss chard, or a combination)
- 1 cucumber, peeled and chopped
- 2 stalks of celery, chopped
- 1 green apple, cored and chopped
- 1/2 lemon, peeled and seeded
- 1 -inch piece of ginger (optional, for added flavor)
- 1 cup of water (adjust for desired consistency)
Instructions

- If you're using a blender: Add all the ingredients to the blender along with a cup of water. Blend until smooth.
- If the consistency is too thick for your liking, you can add more water and blend again.
- If you prefer your green juice cold, you can add ice cubes to the blender and blend until they are fully incorporated.
- Strain the juice through a fine mesh strainer or nut milk bag to remove any pulp, if desired. This step is optional, as some people prefer to keep the fiber in their juice.

Notes
One benefit of green juice is that it provides a concentrated source of essential nutrients and antioxidants from a variety of green vegetables and fruits. These nutrients, including vitamins like vitamin C and K, minerals like potassium, and phytonutrients like chlorophyll and carotenoids, can help support overall health and boost your immune system. Additionally, the high fiber content in green juice can aid in digestion and promote a feeling of fullness, making it a valuable addition to a balanced diet. Consuming green juice regularly can be an easy way to increase your daily intake of these beneficial nutrients, especially if you have a busy lifestyle or find it challenging to eat large quantities of greens and vegetables.
