Celery, Cucumber & Green Apple Hydration Juice

Let’s not overthink it—you’re dehydrated. Probably. Most of us are walking around running on caffeine, vibes, and 14 minutes of sleep. So if you’re waking up with Sahara-level dryness, this juice is your liquid redemption arc.

This one’s all about refreshment and restoration, with a little zing thanks to crisp green apple. It’s simple, clean, and wildly hydrating without tasting like flavored water pretending to be interesting. Think spa water… but make it actually good.

💦 What Makes This Juice Actually Worth Drinking

• Celery’s not just rabbit food. It’s got natural electrolytes, fiber, and it’s surprisingly satisfying in juice form.
• Cucumber is 95% water and gives you that cool, soothing freshness. Basically, the cucumber is here to calm everything down.
• Green apple = tart, sweet balance. Plus, it keeps this from tasting like you juiced a salad.
• Ultra hydrating and anti-bloat—because who has time to feel puffy?

This juice is crisp, clean, and the kind of thing that makes you feel suspiciously healthy while drinking it.

🛒 Ingredients

• 4 celery stalks (leaves and all, unless you hate joy)
• 1/2 cucumber, peeled if the skin is thick or waxy
• 1 green apple, cored and chopped
• Juice of 1/2 lime (optional, but boosts flavor and freshness)
• 1/2 cup cold water (to help it blend)
• Ice cubes (because room-temp juice is a crime)

Optional: fresh mint, a small piece of ginger, or a few basil leaves if you want to get fancy.

🥤 Instructions

Step 1: Rough chop everything

You don’t need Gordon Ramsay knife skills here. Just chop stuff small enough so your blender doesn’t stage a walkout.

Step 2: Blend to oblivion

Throw everything into your blender with cold water. Blend until it’s smooth, juicy, and bright green—like it belongs in a wellness ad but actually tastes good.

Step 3: Strain if you want

If you’re into pulp, go wild and drink it as-is. If not, pour through a mesh strainer or cheesecloth for that smooth-sippin’ texture.

Step 4: Serve cold, feel smug

Pour over ice and sip slowly while pretending you’re on a wellness retreat. Bonus points if you drink it in a mason jar and judge people drinking soda.

😬 Mistakes to Avoid (Learn From Our Regrets)

• Too much celery = bitter central. Stick to 4 stalks max unless you’re emotionally prepared for it.
• Forgetting the lime – A little citrus brightens the whole thing up. Don’t skip it unless you enjoy tasting like grass.
• Not blending long enough – Celery takes a minute to fully break down. Let it blend until smooth. No one likes surprise stringy chunks.

❓ FAQ – Hydration Edition

Can I juice this without a blender?
If you have a juicer, sure. But if not, blender + straining = basically the same thing. Bonus: the fiber doesn’t totally disappear.

What if I hate celery?
Okay, fair. Try using half the amount and balance with more cucumber or apple. Or swap it out entirely and call it cucumber-apple juice. No celery police here.

Can I make this the night before?
Yes, but keep it in a sealed container in the fridge and drink it within 24 hours. The freshness drops off fast and nobody wants sad green juice.

Does this actually hydrate more than water?
Kind of. It has water plus electrolytes (thanks, celery) and nutrients from the produce. Think of it as water’s cooler, more interesting cousin.

Will this make me pee every five minutes?
Not five minutes, but yeah—it’s super hydrating and mildly diuretic. So maybe don’t drink it right before a road trip.

What does it actually taste like?
Fresh, light, slightly sweet, and just the tiniest bit earthy. The apple and lime balance out the green. It’s refreshing, not weird.

💭 Final Thoughts: The Juice Your Skin and Brain Will Thank You For
