Ingredients You’ll Need

Green Detox Juice:
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- 1 cucumber, peeled and chopped
- 2 celery stalks, chopped
- 1 green apple, cored and chopped
- 1/2 lemon, peeled
- 1-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled
- 1 cup cold water
- Ice cubes (optional)

How to Make Green Detox Juice

Step 1: Prep Your Produce

Start by washing your spinach, cucumber, celery, green apple, and lemon thoroughly. Peel the cucumber and lemon, and chop everything into pieces sized for your blender. Don’t forget to peel that knob of ginger for the best flavor!

Step 2: Load the Blender

Add all your prepared ingredients—spinach, cucumber, celery, green apple, lemon, ginger—into your high-speed blender. Pour in the cold water; it’s what gets those blades moving and helps everything blend smoothly.

Step 3: Blend Until Silky Smooth

Secure the lid and blend on high speed until everything is completely broken down and your mixture looks beautifully green and frothy. If your blender needs a little encouragement, pause and scrape down the sides before blending again.

Step 4: Strain or Sip as Is

If you like a silky, crisp juice, pour the mixture through a fine mesh sieve or a nut milk bag into a pitcher, pressing out as much liquid as possible. Prefer extra fiber and body? Just enjoy your Green Detox Juice straight from the blender!

Step 5: Pour and Enjoy

Pour the juice into glasses over ice if desired. The chill makes every sip incredibly refreshing. Serve it up right away for the brightest flavor and nutritional punch!

How to Serve Green Detox Juice

Garnishes

Dress your Green Detox Juice with elegant touches: a twist of lemon peel, a sprig of fresh mint or parsley, or a slice of green apple on the rim. A few ice cubes make it extra brisk—almost spa-like!

Side Dishes

This juice shines alongside a light breakfast or snack, like avocado toast, a bowl of Greek yogurt with berries, or a wholesome granola bar. Its crispness cleanses the palate and is a lovely complement to almost any morning spread.

Creative Ways to Present

Pour your juice into mason jars for a casual vibe, or go upscale in stemless wine glasses with a funky straw. Serve on a breakfast tray for a morning treat, or make a double batch and fill a big pitcher for brunch with friends—it’s always a conversation starter!

Make Ahead and Storage

Storing Leftovers

Although Green Detox Juice is best right after blending, you can keep leftovers in a tightly sealed jar in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Give it a good shake before drinking—some separation is totally normal!

Freezing

If you want to prep ahead, freeze the juice in ice cube trays. These cubes can be blended into smoothies or thawed overnight in the fridge for a quick grab-and-go dose of greens.

Reheating

This juice is meant to be enjoyed cold, so there’s no need to reheat. If you’ve chilled or frozen it, just let it thaw or give it a quick shake with ice and it’s ready to enjoy again.

FAQs

Can I use a juicer instead of a blender?

Absolutely! A juicer will give you a slightly lighter texture and a more clarified Green Detox Juice, but using a blender retains more fiber and plant goodness. It’s really up to your personal preference.

What can I substitute for spinach?

If you’re out of spinach, try using kale, romaine, or even a handful of Swiss chard. Each will bring its own unique flavor and vibrant color to your Green Detox Juice.

How can I make this juice sweeter?

For a sweeter touch, add half a pear or a few pineapple chunks before blending. Green apple also adds a pleasant note of tart-sweetness, but you’re welcome to adjust to taste!

Is this juice good for meal prep?

Green Detox Juice keeps well for a day in the fridge, making it convenient to prepare in advance. For best results, store in an airtight jar and give it a shake before serving.

Can I add protein or other powders?

Certainly! Try stirring in a spoonful of your favorite plant-based protein powder or collagen, or blend in chia seeds for extra staying power. Adjust water if needed to maintain a drinkable consistency.

Final Thoughts

There’s something so invigorating about sipping a glass of homemade Green Detox Juice—especially when you know exactly what goes into it. If you’re looking for a way to eat (or drink!) more greens, I encourage you to whip up a batch and see just how energizing and delicious this simple recipe can be. Here’s to feeling good, one refreshing sip at a time!
