Not all juicers are created equal the amount of juice extracted varies from brand to brand. The weight ranges for the ingredients below will ensure that you have enough juice. Ingredients:
4 to 5 pounds granny smith apples |
3 to 4 pounds carrots, peeled and trimmed |
1 (6-inch) piece peeled fresh ginger |
Directions:
1. Slice apples. Process enough slices in juicer, skimming and discarding any foam, to measure 4 cups juice, then transfer juice to a pitcher. Process enough carrots, skimming and discarding any foam, to measure 3 1/2 cups juice, then add to pitcher with apple juice. Process ginger, then stir 2 1/2 tablespoons ginger juice into pitcher. Chill until cold, about 2 hours.
2. Serve over ice, if desired.
3. Cooks' note: If you don't have a juicer, you can substitute 3 cups nonalcoholic sparkling cider for homemade apple juice (flavor will be sweeter than Granny Smith apple juice). Increase carrot juice to 4 cups and use a good-quality fresh juice (not canned). Juice ginger by finely grating, then forcing pulp through a fine-mesh sieve.
