Cucumber, basil and lime juice

This is especially refreshing when you blend it with an additional handful of ice cubes 

(use a whole lime if you do, as the acid is muted when the juice is cold). 

Think of it as a detox-friendly mojito. Serves one.

1 handful of basil leaves

1 cucumber, cut in half lengthwise

½ lime, zest and pith removed

1 apple, cut into wedges

Starting with the basil, juice everything into a glass. Alternatively, you can chop

 all the ingredients and pop them into a powerful blender with 120ml of water,

 then pass the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into a glass. Give it a stir

 and drink immediately.
