TIPS

Here are some helpful tips for you when making this kale green goddess juice.

  • For A Colder, More Refreshing Drink: Use chilled ingredients or add a few ice cubes before blending.
  • Blend For An Extra 30 Seconds: Use a standard blender to break down the kale and cucumber fibres fully.
  • Straining Is Optional: But recommended for a smoother juice if you prefer a lighter consistency.
  • Use Organic Ingredients: To ensure the highest quality and avoid pesticide residues, especially for leafy greens.
  • Drink Immediately: To prevent nutrient degradation and enjoy the freshest flavour.

VARIATIONS

  • Boost The Detox Effect: Add a small piece of fresh ginger for extra anti-inflammatory benefits.
  • Increase Protein: Blend in a tablespoon of chia seeds or hemp seeds for added plant-based protein.
  • Make It Sweeter: Swap the apple for a pear or add half a banana for natural sweetness.
  • Enhance Hydration: Replace the water with coconut water for a natural electrolyte boost.
  • Add Spice: A pinch of cayenne pepper will enhance metabolism and add a slight heat.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

  • Refrigeration: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Shake well before drinking, as natural separation may occur.
  • Freezing: Pour into an ice cube tray and freeze. Blend frozen cubes with fresh water when ready to enjoy.
  • Meal Prepping: To save time, pre-cut the cucumber, core the apple and wash the kale leaves. Store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days and blend when needed.
