the lemon and remove any seeds from both it and the apple. Juice the leafy green vegetables, followed by the celery and the fruit. Dilute the finished juice with water to offset the tartness from the lemon, or add a small amount of natural sweetener such as agave nectar or honey.
Fruit and Vegetable Combinations
While fruit juices tend to outshine their humbler relatives, they can't always provide the same nutritional punch. That's why so many fruits are best combined with vegetables. These fruit and vegetable juice combinations add richness and greater energy potential to ordinary fruit flavors, producing a more complex and interesting beverage. While some of the ingredients may seem a little unusual, they don't negatively affect the flavor. You even might be surprised by how good these fruit and veggie juices can taste.
Rich and Creamy Breakfast Juice
If you want to be sure your body gets all the essential fats it needs, this juice is a great choice. It combines the health-giving properties of apples and carrots with the rich natural flavor of coconut and the brightness of ginger. You can substitute commercial canned coconut milk if fresh coconut isn't available, but make sure you choose a brand with no added water, gums or preservatives. This recipe is higher in calories than most other juices, so it's best enjoyed in moderation or when you expect to be active.
Ingredients
Meat from ½ large coconut or 1 small coconut
2 medium carrots
1 large sweet apple
½ inch fresh ginger
Grate the coconut using a hand grater or food processor. Add the grated coconut to a blender or juicer, along with about 1/3 cup water. Process until the mixture becomes very thick and the coconut is in many tiny pieces. Place the coconut and water mixture into your juicer using the fine screen. Run it through the juicer, allowing the screen to extract the coconut meat. You may need to remove the end piece to allow the coconut to pass through freely. Reserve the coconut meat for later use.
Remove the seeds from the apple and add it to the juicer or a blender along with the carrots and ginger. Process until an opaque orange liquid is produced. Pour in 1/3 cup of fresh coconut milk, mixing thoroughly. Garnish with slivers of fresh ginger. For a thicker product, refrigerate the liquid first.
