This morning, after exercising for an hour, I was in the mood from some fresh juice. So, I pulled out the Juiceman Jr. and set up my morning selection. Juicing normally take a few minutes, give or take a few minutes. ;oD This morning I had carrots, apples, celery and grapes. So, let’s get juicing!
You’ll need:
- 2 whole carrots
- 2 celery stalks
- 2 red apples, sliced into 8 pieces
- 1 granny smith apple, sliced into 8 pieces
- 1 cup of grapes, still attached to the stem
- a measuring cup
- a strainer
- a large glass or container
- Wash fruits and vegetables.
- Place measuring cup under the out spout of juicer.
- Juice apples a few slices at a time.
- You will see foam on the top of your liquid. Place the strainer over your glass and slowly pour apple juice into strainer.
- Juice the rest of your fruits and vegetables.
- Repeat strainer instructions.
- Stir or gently shake juice to combine in glass/container.
- Enjoy!
