Apple Juice
This simple technique delivers maximum nutrition with very little effort. For the best flavor, combine two or more apple varieties.
Ingredients
- 600 g (4 ) apples, cored, halved
- 60 ml (¼ cup) cold water
Directions
- Place apples and water into the Vitamix container in the order listed and secure the lid.
- Start the blender on its lowest speed, then quickly increase to its highest speed. Blend for 45 seconds, using the tamper to press ingredients toward the blades.
- Transfer purée to a bowl lined with cheesecloth or a filtration bag and twist until juice is extracted.
Chef's Notes
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. To utilize the full 64 ounce capacity triple this recipe.
