They weren’t kidding when they said an apple a day; preliminary research indicates that apples may benefit those with macular degeneration, not to mention decreasing the risk for other issues from asthma to lung cancer. This juice is also good on ice with a shot of vodka.
2 Granny Smith apples, seeded and coarsely chopped
4 McIntosh apples, seeded and coarsely chopped
2 celery stalks, chopped
Combine all the ingredients in a blender and blend for 1 minute. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve and serve.
