How To Make Carrot Juice

honey

🥗Healthier: agave syrup

💰Cheaper: sugar

Agave syrup is lower on the glycemic index.

ginger

🥗Healthier: turmeric

💰Cheaper: ground ginger

Ground ginger is more accessible and still provides flavor.

lemon juice

🥗Healthier: lime juice

💰Cheaper: vinegar

Vinegar can add acidity at a lower cost.

mint leaves

🥗Healthier: basil

💰Cheaper: parsley

Parsley is often less expensive and adds freshness.

Peel the carrots using a vegetable peeler.

Peel the orange and remove all the pith to avoid bitterness.

Scoop out the jelly-like seeds from the passion fruit into a small bowl.

For the juicer method, throw all the vegetables and fruits into the juicer and let it work.

For the no juicer method, chop the peeled carrots and place them in a pan.

Add 2 cups of water to the pan with the carrots and cook on medium-low heat until soft.

If using a powerful blender, you can skip cooking and blend the fruits and vegetables raw.

In a food processor or blender, add the cooled carrots, orange, and passion fruit and blend until smooth.

Add 1 cup of cold water and blend a little more.

Pour the mixture into a fine mesh strainer and squeeze out as much juice as possible.

If desired, add honey or sugar if the juice is not sweet enough, or add more water if the juice is too strong.
