All natural California-grown celery makes the most refreshing, sweet juice. This celery juice recipe so so easy and is a great way to heal and nurture your body and you can make it even if you don’t have a juicer!
Cut the root end off the celery and separate the stalks. Wash them thoroughly to remove all dirt. Cut the celery stalks into 3-4 pieces each. Remove the leaves if you are sensitive to bitter flavors.
Fill the blender about a third of the way full with celery. Add the water and blend on high until smooth. Continue adding celery a handful at a time and blending to not overwork the blender.
Once all the celery is blended and the mixture is as smooth as it is going to get. Set a fine mesh strainer over a large liquid measuring cup or bowl and pour the celery puree a little at a time through the strainer. Push as much juice as you can into the cup with a plastic spatula.
Discard the solids and enjoy the juice over ice with a lemon wheel or just straight up!
Notes
Celery: Leave the leaves on or remove them if you are sensitive to bitter flavors.How to serve: Technically you are supposed to drink the juice without ice or any other flavoring for maximum nutritional benefits. I prefer to drink it over ice because I like it really cold.Add-ins: Feel free to add other fruits or vegetables to the juice. I like apple, lemon juice, orange juice, or ginger. Although, again, it is suggested that additional ingredients will detract from the celery juice’s healing abilities.Storing: The juice is best enjoyed immediately. If you do make it in advance, store in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
