TIPS
- Use Fresh Coriander: Select bright green, unwilted leaves for the best flavour and potency.
- Add Lemon Just Before Blending: To maximise the brightness and vitamin C, squeeze lemon juice in it at the last moment.
- Chill Ingredients First: Keep your apple and water chilled before use for a more refreshing drink.
- Blend Thoroughly: Coriander can be fibrous, so ensure it’s fully broken down for a smoother sipping experience.
VARIATIONS
- Include Mint Leaves: Mint softens the boldness of coriander while enhancing freshness.
- Use Coconut Water: Replace water with coconut water to boost hydration and naturally sweeten your drink.
- Add Ginger: A 1 centimetre piece of ginger root brings warmth and digestive benefits.
- Incorporate Cucumber: Add 1/4 cucumber for a mellow, hydrating touch and additional vitamins.
- Sweeten With Pear: Replace half the apple with pear for a softer and naturally sweet flavour.
- Boost With Spinach: A handful of spinach adds chlorophyll and iron while maintaining a mild profile.
PREPPING AND STORAGE
- Best When Fresh: For optimal flavour and nutrition, drink it immediately after preparing.
- Refrigerate Promptly: If storing, place in a sealed glass jar and refrigerate for up to 12 hours.
- Shake Before Serving: The juice may separate naturally; shake well before drinking.
- Do Not Freeze: Freezing is not advised, as fresh herbs like coriander lose flavour and texture when thawed.
