For the Greens:For the Fruit:For the Flavor Enhancers:How to Blend Green Detox Juice Perfectly
Step 1: Prepare Fresh Greens
Rinse all produce under cool running water, gently rubbing each vegetable to remove any dirt or residue. Pat dry with clean kitchen towels to ensure crisp, clean ingredients.
Step 2: Chop Leafy Powerhouses
Grab a sharp cutting board and knife. Roughly chop kale, spinach, cucumber, and celery into bite-sized pieces.
This helps the juicer process ingredients more efficiently and breaks down tough fiber.
Step 3: Slice Green Apple
Remove apple core using an apple corer or knife.
Slice the green apple into chunks that will easily fit into your juicer’s feeding tube. Leave the skin on for extra nutrients and fiber.
Step 4: Prep Zesty Accents
Using a small paring knife, carefully remove lemon peel. Peel ginger root, removing the thin outer skin.
Both ingredients will add bright, energizing flavors to your detox juice.
Step 5: Juice Everything
Feed all prepared ingredients into your juicer, starting with softer greens and finishing with firmer items like cucumber and apple.
This sequence helps maximize juice extraction.
Step 6: Mix and Blend
Run juicer until all ingredients are completely processed.
Give the juice a gentle stir to ensure even distribution of flavors and nutrients.
Step 7: Serve and Enjoy
Pour juice into a glass immediately for maximum freshness.
For optimal health benefits, drink within 15 minutes of juicing. If storing, use an airtight container and consume within 24 hours.

Storage Tips for Fresh Green Detox Juice
Store the green detox juice in an airtight glass container, keeping it fresh in the refrigerator for up to 24-48 hours. Seal tightly to prevent oxidation and nutrient loss.
Pour the juice into ice cube trays and freeze for later use. Transfer frozen cubes to a freezer bag, which preserves nutrients for up to one month.
Separation is natural with fresh juice, so always give it a good shake or stir before drinking when taking out of the refrigerator to remix settled ingredients.
Never heat this juice, as it will destroy vital nutrients and enzymes. Always consume cold or at room temperature for maximum health benefits.
