Equipment

Juicer or high-speed blender
Fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth (if using a blender)
Measuring cups and spoons
Knife
Cutting board

Ingredients

4 large Celery stalks (about 400g / 14oz)
1 medium Green apple, cored (about 182g / 6.4oz)
¼ cup Fresh mint leaves (about 4g / 0.14oz)
2 tablespoons Lemon juice (about 30ml)
1 inch piece Fresh ginger (about 15g / 0.5oz)
Ice cubes optional
½ cup Cold water (about 120ml)
Erythritol or stevia to taste (optional)

Instructions

Rinse the celery stalks and mint leaves thoroughly. Core the green apple and cut it into wedges. Peel the ginger and roughly chop it.
Using a juicer, begin by juicing the celery stalks, followed by the green apple wedges, mint leaves, and ginger piece. If you don't have a juicer, blend these ingredients with the cold water in a high-speed blender and then strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth to separate the juice.
Stir in the fresh lemon juice to the extracted juice. If you desire a sweeter taste, add a small amount of erythritol or stevia, adjusting according to your preference.
For an extra refreshing experience, add ice cubes to the juice or refrigerate it for 30 minutes before serving. Pour the juice into glasses and garnish with a sprig of mint or a slice of lemon.
Sip on this zesty, hydrating juice as a morning energizer or a midday pick-me-up.

Notes

The green apple can be substituted with another low-carb fruit if preferred. Adjust the amount of mint to control the intensity of the mint flavor. If you're using a blender and straining the mixture, be sure to press down on the pulp to extract as much juice as possible. The nutritional information is approximate and can vary based on the size and type of the ingredients used. Always calculate your own macros if you're strictly monitoring your keto diet. For a smoother juice, you can peel the celery stalks before juicing or blending.
