Description
Discover the ultimate carrot juice recipe! Fresh, sweet, and nutrient-packed, this easy guide shows you how to make delicious carrot juice.
Ingredients
- Carrots: Obviously! Go for fresh, crisp carrots. Organic ones are great since you won’t have to worry as much about pesticides if you’re leaving the skin on.
- A Juicer or Blender: A juicer is the easiest way to extract juice, but a blender works just as well if you don’t mind a little extra effort.
- Optional Add-ins: Ginger, lemon, orange, or even a pinch of turmeric can add some serious flavor (and health benefits).
- Strainer or Cheesecloth (for blender users): This helps separate the juice from the pulp.
Instructions
- Rinse the carrots and celery thoroughly to remove dirt, then pat them dry.
- Chop the carrots and celery into manageable pieces.
- Add the chopped veggies to a blender with ¼ to ½ cup of water and blend until smooth.
- Strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer, pressing the pulp with a spoon to extract juice. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- Freshly made carrot juice can be enjoyed immediately for the best flavor.
- Add a splash of lemon or ginger for an extra kick.
- If you prefer a sweeter juice, you can blend in an apple or a bit of honey.
