The Perfect Blend of Apple and Kale: A Nutritious Juice Recipe
If you’ve been hesitant to incorporate kale into your diet, try blending it with sweet apples for a fragrant and delicious juice! It’s a refreshing way to feel healthier, perfect as a breakfast replacement or an energizing afternoon pick-me-up. This recipe highlights the natural flavors of fresh ingredients, making it incredibly easy for anyone to prepare.
Ingredients
- 1 Apple (washed thoroughly, seeds removed, and chopped into large pieces)
- 3 Kale Leaves (washed thoroughly, tough stems removed)
- 1 Cup Water (adjust to your preference)
- 1 Cup Ice Cubes (essential for a refreshing drink!)
- Honey to taste (for added sweetness)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, peel the apple, remove the core, and chop it into large, bite-sized pieces. Wash the kale leaves thoroughly under running water and prepare only the leaves, discarding the tough stems. Removing the stems will result in a much smoother juice texture.
Step 2
Combine the chopped apple, kale leaves, 1 cup of cool water, and 1 cup of ice cubes in a blender. Secure the lid firmly and blend for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until the ingredients are finely pureed. It’s important to blend until you achieve a smooth, lump-free consistency.
Step 3
Pour the blended juice into a glass and taste. If you desire more sweetness, add honey to your preference. Stir gently one more time after adding honey to create a delicious apple kale juice with a harmonious blend of fragrance and sweetness. Enjoy it chilled immediately!
