Don’t have a juicer?
That’s okay. You can still enjoy this power drink by following these instructions:
- Prep all your produce – wash, peel and cut.
- Place all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth, adding about 1/4 cup of filtered water.
- Place a fine-mesh strainer over a large bowl and pour the juice over.
- Use a wooden spoon or spatula to press the pulp down and squeeze all of the juice out.
