I love the hit from the lime juice and fresh mint in this vibrantly green, zingy juice. This makes a refreshing, cooling drink served on ice, or you could top it up with chilled carbonated mineral water. If serving this to green drink sceptics, they’ll never know that the kale is there!

Instructions

1. Juice the apples, kale and three-quarters of the mint – add a splash of the lime juice if the juicer struggles with the kale. Stir the lime juice and barleygrass into the juice and pour into 2 glasses filled with crushed ice. Chop the reserved mint leaves and sprinkle over the top before serving.
