How to Make Apple Juice Smoothies with Blender

How to Make Apple Juice Smoothies with Blender


1. Apple should be juiced raw, preferably green apple.


2. Apple seeds may be juiced together.


3. Peel all apple that are not organically grown because the peel is where most of the chemical residues can be found, while skins of organically grown apples may be left on.


4. Choose fresh ripe apple Bruised, over or under-ripe apple will produce juices that are neither tasty nor healthful.


5. Turn the blender on and push the pieces through the mouth of blender. Make sure that the pieces are smaller than a golf ball so they will blend completely.


6. Add the liquid ingredients next.


7. Fasten the lid and press the start button. Use high speed for about 20 - 30 seconds.


8. Stop the blender and check to see if the ingredients are well blended. Sometimes the frozen apple will jam under the blade. If there is jammed apple, use a spatula to unjam and blend again.


9. Once the mixture is evenly blended, slowly add two ice cubes through the opening of the blender lid. Keep adding one or two ice cubes at a time until the blender sounds smooth. If your blender is not strong enough to blend ice cubes, omit the ice and substitute just enough ice cold water or apple juice so that the shake will have a milkshake consistency.


10. If the shake / smoothie is too thin, add more fruit or ice. If it’s too thick, add more liquid.


11. As you juice, pulp will collect in a large receptacle. If you don't clean the pulp out right away, it will develop a sour odor and tiny gnats and fruit flies may appear after 8 to 10 hours.


12. It is best to drink freshly made juices within one day.
