Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium Carrots
- 1 large Cucumber
- 2 medium Celery stalks
- 2 medium Tomatoes
- 1 cup Spinach leaves
- 0.5 whole Lemon
- 1 inch piece Ginger
- 0.5 cup Water
- 4 pieces Ice cubes (optional)
- 1 pinch Salt (optional)
- 1 pinch Black pepper (optional)
Instructions
Wash all the fresh produce (carrots, cucumber, celery, tomatoes, spinach leaves, and ginger) thoroughly under running water.
Peel the carrots and ginger. Leave the skin on the cucumber if it is organic; otherwise, peel it as well.
Chop the carrots, cucumber, celery, and tomatoes into smaller pieces suitable for blending or juicing.
Juice the lemon and set the juice aside.
If using a juicer, feed the chopped carrots, cucumber, celery, tomatoes, spinach leaves, and ginger piece into the juicer, one ingredient at a time.
If using a blender, add the chopped vegetables and ginger into the blender along with 0.5 cup of water. Blend until smooth.
If using a blender, strain the blended mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a large bowl to separate the juice from the pulp. Press down with a spoon to extract as much juice as possible.
Add the lemon juice to the vegetable juice and stir well. Add a pinch of salt and black pepper if desired for enhanced flavor.
Pour the juice into glasses. Add ice cubes if you want it chilled.
Serve immediately to enjoy the maximum freshness and nutrients of the vegetable juice cocktail.
