TIPS
- Use Ripe Pear: A soft and ripe pear will blend better and add more natural sweetness.
- Trim Parsley Stems: Use mostly leaves for a milder taste and smoother consistency.
- Chill Water First: Using cold water helps keep the juice cool and crisp when served immediately.
- Blend Longer If Needed: Ensure all leafy bits are thoroughly broken down for a silky finish.
VARIATIONS
- Add Lemon Juice: A squeeze of lemon brightens the flavour and enhances detox benefits.
- Include Ginger: A 1 centimetre piece of ginger root provides warmth and digestive support.
- Mix In Apple: Replace or combine pear with 1/4 green apple for added sweetness and antioxidants.
- Swap With Coconut Water: Use coconut water for natural electrolytes and a tropical twist.
- Add Celery: A few slices of celery can introduce a fresh and mineral-rich layer.
- Stir In Chia Seeds: Add 1 teaspoon of soaked chia seeds after blending for fibre and satiety.
PREPPING AND STORAGE
- Best When Fresh: Drink immediately after preparation to benefit from maximum nutrient retention and taste.
- Refrigeration: If storing, pour into an airtight glass jar or bottle and refrigerate for up to 12 hours.
- Shake Before Serving: Some separation may occur, so shake well before serving.
- Avoid Freezing: This juice does not freeze well due to the delicate texture of pear and parsley.
