Total Time: 15 minutes

INGREDIENTS

• 1/4 medium red cabbage, sliced
• 1 large cucumber, peeled and cut into chunks
• 1 cup fresh blueberries
• 1 large apple, cut into eighths
• Ice cubes (optional)

PREPARATION

1. Working in this order, process cabbage, cucumber, blueberries and apple through a juicer according to the manufacturer’s directions. (No juicer? See Tip.)
2. Fill 2 glasses with ice, if desired, and pour the juice into the glasses. Serve immediately.

Without a Juicier

• If you don’t have a juicier, try this.
• Coarsely chop all ingredients.
• First, place the soft and/or juice ingredients in the blender and process until liquefied.
• Add the remaining ingredients; blend until liquefied.
• Cut two 24-inch-long pieces of cheesecloth. Completely unfold each piece and then stack the pieces on top of each other.
• Fold the double stack in half so you have a 4-layer stack of cloth.
• Line a large bowl with the cheesecloth and pour the contents of the blender into the center.
• Gather the edges of the cloth together in one hand and use the other hand to twist and squeeze the bundle to extract all the juice from the pulp.
