Ultimate Green Juice | Danielle Hayley

Hi guys, welcome to Drinks Tube. I'm Danielle. I own a juice bar in London called Sprout Juicery. Today I'm going to show you how to make the ultimate green juice. It's the perfect tasty way to get all your vitamins and minerals to start your day. Tastes fabulous. Okay, so first thing, you're going to need a juicer. It's totally worthwhile. You're going to use it every single day. They start from about 90 pounds. So first thing for the ultimate green juice, we're going to introduce some kale. So you just want to grab a big handful of these leafy greens here. Full of vitamin A, which is great for the immune system, eyes, great skin. So what we'll do is turn the juicer on. Toss that in here. And you're going to use a little bit of filtered water at the same time as you run it through, just so it doesn't get clogged. So you'll see here how much I'm actually running through the juicer and you're only getting a little bit. So it's a great way to jam pack a whole bowl of this veg into one single juice. Next, we're going to throw in some spinach. So really, really high in iron, great for your metabolism. And if you're a veggie or a vegan, you're looking to fulfill that, because it's difficult to get that if you're not eating meat. So we'll toss that in, same thing as the kale. You're going to use a lot of this, and you're only going to get a little, little bit of juice. Juicing allows us to compact all of this and get one juice. It's a great way to get all the multivitamins and minerals straight to the bloodstream. All the fiber is being removed, so it's also very gentle on the digestive system. So next, we're going to use broccoli. We're going to use about two to three florets of this. Broccoli is high, high in vitamin C, which is a powerful antioxidant, which is great for immune health. A lot of people don't know that you can actually juice the stalk. The stalk has more nutrients than actually the florets do, so that's great. We're going to toss that in. Okay, so next, celery. Very high in chloride, which helps aid digestion. It also has a really nice peppery taste to it. So we're going to take about two to three spears of this, depending on how much you really like the flavor. So toss this in. Celery also gives you a lot of juice. So next, we're going to toss in some cucumber. Cucumber is very, very high in water content as well, which is great for hydration. Toss that in here. This juice is going to be a little bit intense, so we like to add a little bit of apple just to make it a little bit sweeter, more palatable. I usually use about one to one and a half apples per serving. If you're new to green juices, you may want to go a little bit heavier on the apple. Next up is fennel. I love adding fennel to my juices. It has fabulous aniseed or licorice flavor. Fennel is also really, really good to help calm the digestive system. I use maybe about a third of a bulb of fennel, give or take. And you can toss everything in, even the top bits there. So here we have some ginger. Ginger is a superfood. It is powerful anti-inflammatory. It has a really, really nice fiery kick to it. I use about an inch, inch and a half per juice. But I really like a nice kick, so. You don't need to peel the ginger. You can just cut it and put it straight in. Great, so we're almost done with the ultimate green juice. Last thing is lemon. Lemon helps accentuate all the flavors and also makes it a little bit easier on the taste. So I typically use about a quarter of a lemon for my one juice, but you can use as much as you like. You want to make sure that you're not using the skin. It's gonna give it a really, really bitter taste. Here we go, tossing in about a quarter of a lemon. Great, so we're all finished now. We have our ultimate green juice here. Looks a little bit intense, so what we're gonna do is toss it in a jar with a little bit of ice, chill it down. You're going to wanna use a strainer, just for the foamy bits to get that off. Doesn't look too nice, doesn't taste too nice either. This is looking absolutely amazing, I can't wait to drink this. This pulp here is just a little bit of fiber that's passed through the juicer, so we're gonna strain that out, or else that would make a smoothie. Perfect, so we're gonna pop a straw in it. Here we go, you have your ultimate green juice. With this, you're well on your way to satisfying your five a day. Let's give it a try. Amazing, I'm really, really happy with this juice. It's a great way to start your day. The apple, the lemon, the ginger makes it really, really easy to drink. I really want you to try this at home, you're gonna love it.
