Lemony Lettuce Drink, Lemony Lettuce and Apple Juice
by Tarla Dalal

Lettuce is not just a salad food! Combined with lemon, this delightful juice is just the thing to revive you from that sinking feeling!

Try this unusual combination of fruits and vegetables for some real health power with a vitamin C and calcium boost in a glass. There are many types of lettuce available. Dark green varieties lend a slightly bitter taste to juices, so use only the lighter green variety of lettuce. It is easier to juice firm leaves rather than softer leaves.

A glass of Lemony Lettuce Drink with a healthy snack like Mini Jowar and Tomato Uttapa , Oats Moong Toast or Chola Dal Dhokla is a great way to start the day off on the right foot.

Add the lemon juice and black salt and mix well.
Add some crushed ice in 2 individual glasses and pour equal quantities of the juice over it.
Serve immediately.

Juicer method

This recipe doesn’t turn out good in a juicer because the texture of ingredients like apple is very hard.

Handy tip:

This recipe makes use of unpeeled fruits and vegetables, hence take care to clean and wash them well before chopping, to get rid of dirt, germs and chemical residues.
