Ingredients

2 cups Curly kale
2 apples Braeburn, gala or fuji, sliced
½ cucumber chopped
½ lemon Juice of ½ lemon
2 celery stalks chopped
1 pear sliced
¼ cup water
1-2 ice cubes

Instructions

Add lemon juice and water to the blender followed by the fresh ingredients (kale, chopped celery and cucumber, sliced apples and pears).
Secure lid firmly onto blender and blitz using the juice setting on your blender, for 30 seconds - 1 minute, or until juice is smooth. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

Adjust the water as desired – the water content can vary in some fruit and vegetables, therefore you may wish to add more water after blending to make the juice thinner.
Use a good blender – it is important to use a good functioning blender to blitz the fruits and vegetables into smooth juice.
Add ice – this will cool down the temperature of the juice (as the motor of the blender will warm up the drink)
Adjust as desired – if you prefer a sweeter drink, you can add more apples or pear.
