Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups (packed) kale leaves
- 1 large cucumber
- 1 medium green apple
- 2 pieces celery stalks
- 1 medium lemon
- 1 inch piece fresh ginger
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup ice cubes
Instructions
Start by thoroughly washing all the produce: kale leaves, cucumber, green apple, celery stalks, and lemon.
Remove the stems from the kale leaves and chop roughly.
Peel the cucumber if desired, for a milder flavor, and chop into chunks.
Core the green apple and cut into large pieces, keeping the skin on for added nutrients.
Chop the celery stalks into large pieces.
Peel the lemon and remove as much of the white pith as possible to prevent bitterness.
Peel the fresh ginger and slice it into smaller pieces.
In a blender, combine the kale, cucumber, apple, celery, lemon, ginger, water, and ice cubes.
Blend on high speed until all ingredients are smooth and well incorporated, about 1-2 minutes, scraping down the sides if necessary.
Taste the blend and adjust the consistency by adding more water if it's too thick.
Pour into a glass and serve immediately for the freshest taste and highest nutrient content.
