Ingredients
- 4 large apples (any sweet variety), cored and sliced
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 2 cups water
- 1 tablespoon honey (optional, for extra sweetness)
- Ice cubes (for serving)
- Cinnamon stick (for garnish, optional)
- Apple slices (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
- Begin by preparing your apples. Core and slice them into manageable pieces for blending.
- In a blender, combine the apple slices, ground cinnamon, fresh lemon juice, and water. Blend until the mixture is smooth and the apples are fully pureed.
- To ensure a smooth and velvety texture, pour the blended mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a large bowl or pitcher. Use a spoon to press the juice through, leaving any pulp behind.
- If you prefer a sweeter drink, stir in a tablespoon of honey until fully dissolved. Taste and adjust sweetness if necessary.
- Pour the juice into glasses over ice cubes for a refreshing chill. Garnish with a cinnamon stick and a few apple slices for an elegant touch.
- Savor the delightful combination of sweet apple and warm cinnamon with every sip. Enjoy!
Helpful Tips and Variations
– For a more intense cinnamon flavor, add an extra pinch of ground cinnamon.
– Serve in a chilled glass for extra refreshment, especially on a warm day.
– This juice can also be heated and served warm for a cozy drink on cold evenings.
Storage and Substitutions
If you have any leftovers, refrigerate the juice in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Give it a good shake before serving again.
If apples are out of season, substitute with pears for a similar texture and a slightly different yet delicious flavor. Agave syrup or maple syrup can be used in place of honey for a vegan alternative.
