Equipment

1 Knife
1 Blender
1 Sieve

Ingredients

4 Granny Smith apples, cored, seeds removed, and sliced
1 lemon
1 to 2 cups water
Ice cubes to serve
Sweetener to serve

Instructions

Wash the green apples thoroughly, then cut them into quarters. Remove the seeds and core.
Slice and squeeze the lemon to extract its juice. Set aside.
Place the apple slices in a blender or push them through a juicer.
Add the lemon juice and blend until smooth if using a blender. You can also add a bit of water to help with the blending process.
Strain the apple mixture through a sieve to remove any solids.
Stir one to two cups of water into the apple juice to adjust its flavor according to your preference.
If preferred, sweeten the green apple juice with stevia, agave nectar, or maple syrup.
Stir and pour over ice cubes. Garnish with mint or a green apple slice if desired. Enjoy!

Notes

Feel free to use a juicer to make your green apple juice.
When blending the ingredients, use the highest speed setting and blend for 20 to 30 seconds or until the mixture is smooth.
Fresh green apple juice is best served right after making it. However, leftovers should be stored in an airtight container in the fridge and consumed within 4 days.
