Remove most of the stalk from the broccoli, then chop. You will need about two cups of dark green broccoli crowns.

Transfer the water and broccoli to a blender (Vita-mix works best). Pulse on medium (5-6) until the broccoli is well broken up, then blend from medium to high until smooth (about 30 seconds in a Vita-mix, a minute or two in a blender).
