Instruction
- Add apple, cucumber, lime, mint and leafy greens to the juicer. Add a small knob of fresh ginger if you like the taste. Strain if needed.
- Pour the result into a glass and enjoy.
- Would you like an extra boost of antioxidants & minerals? Add ½ teaspoon spirulina powder to the juice and stir well.
- If you don’t have a juicer at home, combine your ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Add a few tablespoons of water if necessary.
- Pour the result into a nut milk bag or cheesecloth. Gently squeeze the nut milk bag in order to separate the juice from the pulp.
