Green Juice with a Kick!

The kick in this green juice is provided by a little jalapeño pepper. We added the jalapeño because they are known to contain the chemical capsaicin, which gives them their heat and is also known for its anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties. Capsaicin has also been recognized by many for its support of weight loss and boosting of the metabolism.

  • 2 cups spinach
  • 1 cucumber
  • 1/4 cup to 1/2 cup of cilantro leaves and stems

  • 1 cup chopped pineapple (peel removed)

DIRECTIONS:

  • Cut all ingredients into the appropriate size for the juicer.⁣
