Apple Juice
This simple technique delivers maximum nutrition with very little effort. For the best flavor, combine two or more apple varieties.
Ingredients
- 680 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 lid.
- Select Variable 1, start the machine and increase to its highest speed. Blend for 45 seconds, using the tamper to push ingredients into the blades.
- Transfer purée to a bowl lined with cheesecloth or a filtration bag and twist until juice is extracted.
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. The flavor of this beverage resembles apple cider.
