Ginger is a potent antioxidant, as well as delicious!
Ingredients:
2 cucumbers, peeled if not organic
1 pear, cored and seeded
10 romaine lettuce leaves (about 1 head)
1-in (2 1/2-cm) piece fresh ginger, peeled
Instructions:
Wash and prep all ingredients.
Juice all ingredients. Enjoy 1 serving now and store the other for later (see below for storage), or share with a friend. Serve over ice if desired.
Notes:
Storage tip: Fresh juice should be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator and consumed within 24 hours. If you aren’t able to enjoy your juice within 24 hours, it can be stored in the freezer in a glass mason jar for up to 1 month (be sure to leave a little space at the top for expansion once frozen).
