Prep everything: wash the produce, core the apples, and peel the lemon. Quick rinse, then you’re almost there.

Chunk the cucumber and apples for easy juicing. Ginger goes in whole or grated—your call.

Juice it all. If you’re using a blender, blend with water and then strain. No judgment if you prefer the blender route—just keep it smooth.

Stir in coconut water or plain water. Taste. If you want more brightness, squeeze in a little extra lemon.

Pour over ice and sip. Optional: garnish with a celery stalk or a thin lemon wheel for drama.
