Resort Green Juice Copycat Recipe
I developed this juice after a trip we took to Mexico where I couldn't get enough of the green juice. I've lowered the sugar level on mine but it can easily be sweetened with a touch of honey or by adjusting the coconut water.
Servings 10 glasses
Ingredients
- 1 medium canary or honeydew melon peeled, insides scooped out, flesh cut into pieces
- 3 medium Fuji apples, cores removed
- 1 large English cucumber, cut into chunks
- 1 small lemon, quartered
- 1 small container or bag of washed spinach
- 2 cups coconut water
- honey optional
Instructions
- Add the melon, apples, lemon, and cucumber to a high power blender and blend until a loose juice forms. Add the spinach and blend until incorporated. Add the coconut water and blend on high until uniform.
- Pass the mix through a fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth into a pitcher or large bowl. For a juice with more pulp, use the back of a spoon to push the juice through the strainer. For less pulp, allow the juice to sit and strain slowly. use a spoon to scoop away the pulp that has settled in the strainer from time to time.
- Put the juice in a pitcher in the fridge to chill, or serve immediately with ice. Adjust the sweetness by adding more coconut water (if too sweet) or a little honey (if not sweet enough).
