Ingredients
- 3 green apples, cored and cut into smaller pieces
- 3 limes, peeled and cut in half
- 2 cucumbers, peeled and cut into smaller pieces
- 2 inch ginger root, peeled and cut into smaller pieces
- 3 stalks celery, cut into smaller pieces
- 1 bunch parsley
- Prepare Ingredients: Begin by thoroughly washing all the produce. Core the green apples and cut them into small pieces. Peel the limes completely and cut each in half. Peel and chop the cucumbers and ginger root into smaller pieces, and cut the celery stalks into manageable sizes. Gather the parsley bunch as well.
- Blend Ingredients: Place all the prepared ingredients into a blender. Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and uniform in texture, ensuring that all the fibrous parts are well processed to allow maximum juice extraction.
- Extract Juice: Pour the blended mixture into a nut milk bag or fine mesh strainer over a large bowl. Squeeze and press the bag firmly to extract all the juice, leaving behind the fibrous pulp. Transfer the freshly extracted juice into a glass bottle for storage.
- Refrigerate and Serve: Refrigerate the green shots to chill them before drinking. Enjoy one shot daily as a nutritious wellness boost to your morning routine or anytime during the day.
Notes
- Use a high-speed blender for smoother extraction and better juice yield.
- The green shots are best consumed fresh but can be stored refrigerated for up to 48 hours.
- If you prefer a thinner consistency, you can add a little water before blending.
- Adjust the ginger quantity based on your spice preference.
- Ensure the limes are fully peeled to avoid bitterness from the white pith.
