Ingredients

4 apples, seeded, cored, quartered
60 ml (¼ cup) cold water
2 double layer cheese cloths

Directions

Place water and apples into the Vitamix container in the order listed and secure lid.
Select Variable 1.
Turn machine on and slowly increase speed to Variable 10, then to High.
Blend for 45 seconds, using the tamper to push apples into the blades until puréed.
If desired, transfer purée to a bowl lined with cheesecloth set atop a bowl and twist until juice is extracted.
Allow to strain about 10 minutes.

Notes

For the best flavor, combine two or more apple varieties. Fiber is removed when filtering through cheesecloth. To create a thinner juice with the fiber intact blend with 3 cups of water, this will lessen the intensity of the apple flavor but increase the fiber intake.
