Ingredients

1/2 peeled cucumber
1/2 cored pear
1 cup romaine
1/2 cup kale
2 ice cubes
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Directions

Line a strainer with two layers of cheesecloth, leaving plenty of cloth around the edges. Place the strainer over a mixing bowl or a measuring cup.
Blend all ingredients on high for 90 seconds, adding additional coconut water (or filtered water) if the blend is not liquefying.
As soon as your slurry is the consistency of a thick tomato soup, pour into cheesecloth-lined strainer and let the liquid filter through.
When the juice slows to a trickle, gather the edges of the cheesecloth and squeeze so the remaining juice is pushed through the cheesecloth. Repeat if necessary.
