Chef's Notes
Substitutions
For the cucumber, you can use Persian or English.
Use lime juice in place of lemon juice, if desired.
Use orange juice, mango juice or other juice of your choice in place of pineapple juice.
If you prefer no pulp
If you blend this juice until smooth, you should have very little pulp, however, if you want it even smoother, strain the juice before pouring over ice.
Storage
Store leftover juice in the refrigerator in a mason jar or pitcher for up to 5 days.
