Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cucumber washed, cut into long wedges
  • 1 firm, ripe pear cored and pips removed, cut into wedges
  • 40 g baby spinach a small handful, washed
  • ½ lemon peeled, pips removed

Equipment

  • Any Sana slow juicer, fine screen fitted
  • Chopping board and knife

Method
 

  1. Cut the cucumber into long wedges. Core the pear, remove the pips and cut it into wedges. Peel the lemon half and remove the pips.
  2. Roll the spinach into two or three tight bundles.
  3. Fit the fine screen. On the Sana 727, set the speed to 40 rpm. On the Sana 818 or 878, put the spinach at the bottom of the hopper, then the cucumber, lemon and pear on top.
  4. On a horizontal juicer, feed a bundle of spinach, then a wedge of cucumber or pear to push it through. Repeat, adding the lemon between them.
  5. Finish with cucumber to carry the last of the juice out.
  6. Stir and drink straight away.

Notes

Makes about 380 ml. Once you like it, swap half the spinach for a rolled kale leaf.
