33 Juicing Recipes for Weight Loss - Recipes: All-Fruit Juices - Sweet and Salty Apple-Pineapple Juice

Ingredients:

2 cups fresh pineapple, cut into chunks

1 cup fresh apple, cored and cut into chunks

¼ teaspoon sea salt or two pinches

2 leaves basil

1 sprig mint

Preparation:

1.      Wash and peel the pineapple, making sure to cut the ‘eyes’ or spots out.

2.      Cut the pineapple into chunks, setting aside one cup. Wrap the rest of the pineapple in Saran wrap, label with time and date, then place in the chiller or freezer.

3.      Wash the apple thoroughly. If the apples were bought at a supermarket, check for the wax coating. To get rid of the wax coating, prepare a mixture of water, baking soda, and a dash of lemon. Dip an old toothbrush in the mixture and gently brush the apples. Alternatively, you can buy your apples from a local farmer’s market.

4.      Core the apples with a corer or cut the fleshy parts away with a knife and throw the core away. It is important not to juice any part of the core especially the seeds – they contain cyanide.

5.      Cut the apples into chunks, enough to fill one cup.

6.      Toss the pineapples in the salt.

7.      Juice the pineapples along with the basil.

8.      Juice the apples along with the mint.

9.      Pour in a glass and enjoy, in room temperature or with ice.
