Ingredients
- cucumber (1, peeled and chopped)
- baby spinach (1 cup, rinsed)

- pear (1, peeled, cored, and chopped)
- carrot (1, peeled and chopped)
- lemon juice (from 1 lemon)

- water (½ cup)
Instructions
- Add cucumber, baby spinach, apple, pear, carrot, lemon juice, fresh ginger, and water to a high-speed blender. Blend until completely smooth.

- Serve immediately, or refrigerate in a sealed container for up to 24 hours.
Notes
This recipe can be doubled in a large high-speed blender, but tripling it will likely exceed the blender’s capacity. If you need more, blend in batches.
Peeling the cucumber, apple, pear, and carrot creates a smoother juice and improves yield when straining.
A nut milk bag gives the smoothest result, but a fine mesh strainer works well if that’s what you have.
This juice is best enjoyed fresh, but it can be stored in a sealed jar in the refrigerator for up to 48 hours. Stir or shake before drinking.
