Credited as inspired by Kevin James.
Vitamix high‑speed blender shown in the video.

Overview

A very green kale shake made in a blender (not a juicer). Quantities are not specified in the video; ingredients are added qualitatively and blended until drinkable. A little liquid may be added as needed for blending.

Ingredients

Fresh kale (base / majority of the shake)
Cucumber, chopped
Celery stalks
Fresh ginger (a small piece — “a touch”)
Pear (used in the demo); apple is an acceptable substitute
Water or other liquid to loosen as needed (not specified in subtitles)

Equipment and prep

High‑speed blender (Vitamix shown)
Prep: chop the cucumber; other produce can be added whole or roughly chopped
Bring all ingredients to the blender and blend

Method — step‑by‑step

Prepare ingredients: chop the cucumber; have kale, celery, pear (or apple), and a small piece of ginger ready.
Add kale, chopped cucumber, celery, pear, and ginger to the blender.
Blend until fully combined and drinkable — result described in the demo as a very green, “Hulk”-colored shake.
Serve immediately (presenter drinks it first thing in the morning).

Blend (not juice) to retain the plant fiber.

Technique cues and timings

Use a blender to keep the fiber from the plants; a juicer removes fiber.
Blend until smooth/drinkable — no exact time given.

Chef tips, reasons and claims from the video
