The combination of sweet pears, crisp cucumbers, aromatic fennel, and zingy ginger creates a balanced medley of flavours, perfectly rounded off with a hint of cooling mint.

Ingredients

  • 2 pears

  • 1/2 small fennel bulb

  • 1 ginger piece, 2cm

  • 1 handful mint leaves

  • 2 cucumbers

Qty: 600 ml
Serves: 2

Ingredient Tips

  • Chill your ingredients: Refrigerate the pears and cucumbers before juicing for an extra refreshing drink.

  • Adjust ginger: If you prefer a milder taste, reduce the amount of ginger or leave it out entirely. Conversely, for a spicier kick, add a little more.

  • Enhance the flavour: A splash of lemon juice can elevate the flavour and add a touch of tanginess.

Preparation

Pear

  • Remove the hard wooden stems

  • Juice whole or cut in half if too big to fit into the wide chute

Cucumber

  • Cut into chunks to fit down the chute

  • Juice with skin on

Ginger

  • Wash and dry

  • Cut into thin pieces the size of your thumbnail leaving the skin on

Mint

  • Remove the leaves from the woody stems

  • Juice leaves in handfuls

Fennel

  • Remove the green stems and leaves (they can be juiced)

  • Cut into half and then slices to fit in the wide chute

Cold Press Juicing Method

When using a traditional cold press juicer use the following method to maximise the flavour and keep the juice following through the machine easily.

Start by feeding the mint leaves into the juicer, followed by the fennel pieces and the ginger.

Add the cucumber next, go slowly as the cucumber is soft and you don’t want to get a build-up of cucumber pulp in the juicer.

Lastly, juice the pears one at a time.
