Black Pepper Free Detox Green Juice
This vibrant green juice is the kind of drink that makes you feel like you're doing something genuinely good for yourself — and honestly, you are. Cucumber and celery form a hydrating, mineral-rich base, while fresh spinach and parsley layer in deep green goodness without any bitterness. A hit of lemon brightens everything up, and the fresh ginger adds a warm, zingy kick that makes each sip feel alive. Many store-bought green juices and wellness blends sneak in spice blends or flavor enhancers that can contain hidden pepper derivatives, so making this at home puts you fully in control of every single ingredient. Whether you run it through a juicer or blend and strain it, the result is a clean, jewel-toned glass of something that tastes as fresh as it looks. Serve it over ice right away to catch it at peak flavor and color — this one doesn't wait around.

If using a juicer: feed the cucumber, celery, spinach, parsley, lemon, ginger, and garlic (if using) through the juicer in alternating batches, starting and ending with the cucumber to help push the leafy greens through. Collect the juice in a measuring cup or pitcher.
