Pro tips

  • When trying to source the best cucumbers for juicing, search for medium-to-large cucumbers that are firm without any soft spots or blemishes.

  • Your cucumbers should be dark green with minimal to no yellow spots – these spots tend to develop once the cucumber becomes overly ripe. If your cucumbers have wax on the outside, make sure to properly remove the wax with a safe veggie wash.

  • Leave the stems on the kale – they typically contain a lot of flavor and juice. Coming from the farm, kale will have dirt on the leaves and needs to be thoroughly washed.
