Ingredients
 
 

  • 6 medium navel oranges
  • 4 small carrots or 2 large carrots
  • 1 medium lemon
  • 1 inch ginger root

Instructions
 

  • Wash all ingredients thoroughly. Cut the peel off the oranges and lemon. Discard the peel. Trim both sides of the carrots. Discard ends. Peel the ginger. Discard the peel.
  • Juice the prepared ingredients in a juicer according to the manufacturer's directions. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Start with cold oranges and carrots so your juice is cool and crisp right out of the juicer, no ice dilution needed.
  • Peel the ginger with a spoon - a quick scrape with a spoon is all it takes to remove the thin skin without wasting the potent root underneath.
  • If the juice is too tart or spicy, mellow it out with an extra orange. If it’s too sweet, add more lemon or a bit of turmeric for depth.
  • No juicer? No problem! Use a blender instead - blend all the ingredients with a little water, then strain the mixture through a nut milk bag or fine mesh sieve to remove the pulp.
Serve: Serve it alongside a wholesome breakfast spread, light lunch, or for a snack.
Store: Orange carrot juice is best consumed immediately. If making ahead, store freshly made juice in an airtight glass bottle or jar and keep in the fridge for 1 to 2 days. When ready to enjoy, give it a good shake before drinking.
