The farthest I’ve gotten with a juice cleanse is about 8 hours. Lame, I know, but I’ve resigned myself to the fact that juice is just a delicious breakfast and snack for me. There’s something about a glass of green juice that just revives. I love this blend for all of the bright herbs, refreshing cucumber, and a hint of sweetness from the apple. Enjoy!

INGREDIENTS

For one 8-ounce juice

2 kale leaves

1 small handful parsley

1 small handful spinach

1 small handful cilantro

3 mint sprigs

1 romaine leaf

1 cup chopped cucumber

1/2 apple

1 lime, juiced

DIRECTIONS

If using a juicer, combine similarly textured ingredients (all of the greens together, and then the cucumber and apple, for instance), and juice in small batches. If you don’t have a juicer, pop everything in the blender, add a few tablespoons of water (or replace the apple with cold pressed apple juice), and puree super thoroughly. Pour through a strainer. The juice is best enjoyed immediately!
