Carrot & Ginger Vitality Juice

Carrot & Ginger Vitality Juice

Ingredients

  • 3-4 large Carrots (peeled and chopped)

  • 1 large Lemon (juiced)

  • 1-inch piece Fresh ginger (peeled)

  • 1/2 tsp Turmeric powder (optional, for added benefits)

  • 2 cups Water (filtered)

  • 1 pinch Black pepper (helps with nutrient absorption)


Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prepare the Produce

Wash the carrots thoroughly and peel them. Slice them into smaller chunks so they blend easily. Peel the fresh ginger using the edge of a spoon.

2. Blend

Place the carrots, ginger, lemon juice, turmeric, and black pepper into a high-speed blender. Add the water. Blend on high for about 1–2 minutes until the mixture is as smooth as possible.

3. Strain for Smoothness

If you prefer a clear juice, pour the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer, a nut milk bag, or a piece of cheesecloth into a glass pitcher. Use a spoon to press down on the pulp to extract all the liquid.

Note: Keeping the pulp provides more fiber, which is beneficial for digestion.

4. Chill and Serve

Serve the juice over ice or store it in the refrigerator. It is best enjoyed fresh, but it will keep in a sealed glass jar for up to 24 hours.


How to Enjoy

  • Consistency: Drinking one glass in the morning and one in the afternoon can help keep you hydrated and satisfied between meals.

  • Variation: You can add a half-inch of fresh parsley for an extra herbal boost and more Vitamin K.


Pro Tip

Don’t throw away the carrot pulp! You can mix it into muffin batter or oatmeal for an extra boost of fiber and nutrients.
