Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 200 g pineapple peeled, cut into chunks
  • ½ head cos lettuce about 150 g, leaves separated and washed
  • ½ cucumber washed, cut into long wedges
  • 6 mint leaves washed
  • ½ lime peeled, pips removed

Equipment

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

Method
 

  1. Peel the pineapple and cut it into chunks. Cut the cucumber into long wedges. Peel the lime half and remove the pips.
  2. Roll the cos leaves into two or three tight bundles, tucking the mint leaves inside.
  3. Fit the fine screen. On the Sana 727, set the speed to 40 rpm. On the Sana 818 or 878, cut the cos into pieces of about 3 cm and put it and the mint at the bottom of the hopper, with the pineapple, lime and cucumber on top.
  4. On a horizontal juicer, feed a bundle of cos, then a wedge of cucumber, then a few chunks of pineapple. Repeat, adding the lime between them.
  5. Finish with cucumber to carry the last of the juice out.
  6. Stir and drink straight away.

Notes

Makes about 350 ml. The sweetest of our beginner greens; use less pineapple and more cucumber as your taste changes.
