Ingredients

2 medium pears (460g), unpeeled, quartered

2 stalks celery (300g), untrimmed

1 small lemon (100g), peeled, quartered

1/2 cup loosely packed fresh basil leaves

Method

1.Push pears alternately with celery, lemon and basil through a juice extractor into a jug. Stir to combine. Serve immediately.

It’s best to drink this immediately, as the pear will discolour quickly. Remember to stay hydrated with water throughout the night and drink responsibly. No amount of pear juice will remedy over-indulging.
