Double Apple Detox Juice

This juice is literally like drinking candy, but without the guilt of rotting your teeth or hurting your stomach after inevitably finishing the bag you bought for ‘company.’

I modeled this recipe after my favorite juice from Pressed Juicery, but added Aloe Vera and more everything to bump of the flavor and health benefits.
This juice is packed with delicious fruit and flavor & benefits. With Pineapples, the fruit that represents welcoming, at it’s base why don’t we welcome some good gut health into the holiday season with this sweet & tangy juice you can make yourself.

Ingredients:

1 Gala Apple (yields about 1/2 cup juice)
1/2 Pineapple (yields about 1/5 cup juice)
1/2 Lemon
6 Large Mint Leaves
About 1” of Aloe Vera, cleaned**

** BE SURE TO EITHER BUY ALOE VERA WATER PACKAGED OR RESEARCH HOW TO PROPERLY PREPARE ALOE VERA FOR CONSUMPTION - PARTS OF THE PLANT ARE HIGHLY TOXIC

If you have a juicer, juice the whole Apple & about 1/2 cleaned Pineapple (you want about 1.5 cup of juice), add to a blender with Aloe Vera**, Lemon Juice & Mint. Strain through a fine strainer & chill with a few whole mint leaves before serving.

If you don’t have a juicer, blend your peeled Apple and cleaned Pineapple and strain through a fine strainer or squeeze in cheese cloth.
