Notes
Make it sweeter: Swap green apple for Honeycrisp or Fuji, or add pineapple chunks. You can also replace lemon with orange or grapefruit for a citrus boost.
Customize it: Add jalapeño for heat, fresh mint for a cooling twist, or mix in spirulina, chlorella, or wheatgrass for an extra nutrient boost.
Storage: Drink within 24 hours for best taste and nutrients (up to 48 hours refrigerated in an airtight container).
Reduce waste: Save leftover pulp for smoothies, soups, or compost.
Prep ahead: Chop fruits and veggies the night before and store in a sealed glass container in the fridge to make juicing faster and easier.
Batch juicing: Make a few days’ worth at once to save time on cleanup. Store in airtight containers and enjoy within 48 hours.
