Preparation
In a blender, combine the cucumber, green apple, ginger, lemon juice, and water. Blend until smooth.
Strain the mixture using a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth to remove pulp, or drink as-is for more fiber.
Stir in the apple cider vinegar and mint or turmeric, if using.
Pour into a glass jar or bottle and chill before serving.
Serving and Storage Tips
Drink 1 cup in the morning on an empty stomach and 1 cup in the evening before dinner.
For best results, consume daily for at least 14 days.
Store the mixture in the refrigerator for up to 48 hours in a sealed glass jar.
Shake or stir before drinking if separation occurs.
Variants

Sweeter version: Add a few slices of pineapple or orange to the blend.
Anti-bloat herbal version: Add fennel seeds or dandelion root tea for added digestive support.
Fiber-rich: Leave the mixture unstrained to keep all the natural fiber, aiding in gut movement.
