Wheatgrass Shot

1 oz fresh wheatgrass2 tbs filtered water (for rinsing juicer parts)1 cube ice (optional, for serving chilled)1/4 tsp fresh lemon (optional, to taste)

Method

Wheatgrass Shot

Preparation

If using whole wheatgrass bunches, trim any brown tips and rinse briefly under cold running water to remove dirt. Pat dry with a clean towel or spin lightly in a salad spinner. If using pre-cut wheatgrass, proceed to juicing.

Juicing

Feed the wheatgrass through a cold-press masticating juicer or a dedicated wheatgrass juicer. Collect enough juice to measure 1 oz (30 ml). If you only have a centrifugal juicer, press small batches and strain through a fine mesh to remove pulp. Use the 2 tbs of filtered water only if the juicer clogs — add sparingly to help extract juice, then discard excess.

Optional Finishing

If desired, add a tiny squeeze of fresh lemon (about 1/4 tsp juice) to brighten flavor or serve chilled over a single ice cube. Stir gently and pour into a chilled shot glass.

Serving

Serve immediately as a 1 oz wheatgrass shot. Consume right away for best nutrient retention.

Cleaning

Rinse juicer parts promptly with the 2 tbs of filtered water (or more as needed) to prevent residue from drying. Clean thoroughly according to your juicer's instructions.
