For the Juice
  • 2 cups Kale Rich in vitamins A, C, and K; substitute with spinach for a milder flavor.

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Wash all your fruits and veggies thoroughly; remove the tough stems from the kale and chop the apple into quarters for easy blending.
  2. Squeeze the lemon juice into your blender, ensuring to discard any seeds. Add some lemon zest into the mix for an extra burst of flavor.
  3. Toss the kale leaves, apple chunks, ginger, and lemon juice into the blender, creating a vibrant base for your juice.
  4. Pour in 1 cup of filtered water or coconut water, depending on your preferred consistency for the juice.
  5. Blend on high until completely smooth. If you prefer a very silky texture, strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth.
  6. Pour the juice over ice and enjoy immediately for a refreshing, nutrient-rich drink that revitalizes your spirit!
