Step 2: Add liquids and ice

Add the ice cubes and cold water.

Step 3: Blend

Blend on high until completely smooth.

Step 4: Strain (Optional)

Taste and adjust sweetness or salt as needed.

Step 6: Serve

Serve immediately over additional ice if desired.

Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung

Using a high-speed blender is essential to break down the fibrous celery stalks and ginger effectively. If you prefer a lighter, more juice-like consistency, do not skip the straining step using a nut milk bag or fine mesh sieve.

Varianten und Anpassungen

For extra freshness, consider adding a green apple or cucumber to the blend. You can also substitute agave syrup with maple syrup or honey (if not vegan) depending on your preference.

Serviervorschläge

This drink is best consumed immediately while fresh. Because separation is natural with fresh juice, remember to give it a quick stir before serving. Garnish with a slice of lemon or a few extra mint leaves for a beautiful presentation.

Common Questions

→ Can I make this ahead of time?

Best consumed fresh for optimal flavor and nutrition. If storing, keep refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 24 hours. Natural separation may occur—simply stir well before serving.

→ Do I have to strain the mixture?

Straining is optional and depends on your texture preference. For a smoother, silkier consistency, use a fine mesh sieve or nut milk bag. Leaving the pulp retains more fiber and creates a heartier drink.

→ What can I substitute for agave syrup?

Maple syrup works perfectly for a vegan option. Honey adds depth but isn't suitable for strict vegans. For a completely sugar-free version, omit sweetener entirely or add a green apple for natural fruit sweetness.

→ Can I use a regular blender?

A standard blender works, though a high-speed blender breaks down celery fibers more thoroughly. If using a regular blender, blend longer and chop ingredients smaller before adding. Straining becomes more important for achieving smooth results.

→ How can I make this more filling?

Add half a green apple, cucumber, or even a banana for creaminess and substance. A tablespoon of chia seeds soaked beforehand creates a thicker texture. Adding protein powder transforms this into a complete breakfast option.

→ Is the ginger flavor too strong?

Start with a smaller piece of ginger if you're sensitive to its spice—around 1/2 inch instead of a full inch. The flavor mellows slightly when combined with mint and lemon. Taste after blending and add more gradually if desired.
