Thoroughly rinse the celery stalks under running water to remove dirt and debris. Wash the apple, cucumber, and lemon as well.
Step 2: Prepare the Celery
- Cut off the base of the celery bunch.
- Chop the stalks into smaller pieces.
- Remove any damaged or wilted parts.
Step 3: Cut the Additional Ingredients
- Core and slice the apple.
- Slice the cucumber.
- Squeeze the lemon juice.
Step 4: Blend Everything
Add the celery, apple, cucumber, lemon juice, and water to a blender.
Blend for 1–2 minutes until smooth.
Step 5: Strain (Optional)
For a smoother juice:
- Pour the mixture through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth.
- Press gently to extract as much liquid as possible.
If you prefer extra fiber, skip this step.
Step 6: Serve

Celery juice is not a cure for diseases and does not “cleanse” organs in a medical sense. If you have kidney disease, are taking blood-thinning medications, or have specific health concerns, consult a healthcare professional before making major dietary changes.
