Ingredients
- 4 large carrots, peeled and chopped
- 2 large oranges, peeled and segmented
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice (optional)
- 1 teaspoon honey or agave syrup (optional, to taste)
- Water (as needed)
Instructions
- Prepare the Ingredients: Wash and peel the carrots, then chop them into smaller pieces for easier blending. Peel the oranges and separate them into segments.
- Blend: In a blender, combine the chopped carrots and orange segments. Add a bit of water (about 1/2 cup to start) to help with blending. Blend until smooth.
- Strain (Optional): If you prefer a smoother juice, strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a bowl or pitcher. Press down to extract as much juice as possible.
- Add Flavor: Stir in the lemon juice and honey or agave syrup if desired. Adjust sweetness to your liking.
- Chill and Serve: Pour the juice into glasses over ice and enjoy!
Tips
- For added flavor, consider adding a small piece of fresh ginger or a pinch of turmeric.
- This juice is best served fresh but can be stored in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
