Frequently Asked Question
The best time to drink this refreshing juice will be first thing in the morning. As your body is in fasting mode from the night, it absorbs the nutrients more effectively. It will also leave you hydrated and energized in the morning.
You can also enjoy it before or after your workout/exercise, as it will provide you with instant energy. Taking a sip of this juice mid-workout can also spike your energy levels.
Firstly, cut the stem (top part) of the apple. Now cut the apple in half from top to bottom. Take one half and cut it vertically into half again, making two quarters. Remove the core using a sharp knife and slice the apples into pieces.
It totally depends on you! I don’t like to peel it, as the skin is loaded with rich nutrients and vitamins.
Storage Suggestions
Granny smith apple juice tastes the best when served fresh. You can refrigerate it in an airtight container for 2-3 days, but it will lose its freshness and taste with time.
Freeze it instead! It will last for 3 to 6 months. The freezing process does affect the taste of the juice, so taste it before serving it again.
