Directions

  1. Put the ingredients in a blender and add enough water to fill 3/4 of the blender. Hold the lid on the blender and purée until smooth.
  2. Place a fine mesh sieve over a bowl and pour the purée through it, pressing against the sieve with a rubber spatula or the back of a spoon to extract as much liquid out as possible.
