Ingredients

• 2 medium Carrot
• 2 medium Orange
• 1 large Apple
• 1 inch piece Fresh ginger
• 0.5 Lemon
• 1 teaspoon Honey (optional)
• 0.5 cup Cold water or ice cubes

Directions

Step 1

Wash all the produce thoroughly under running water.

Step 2

Peel the carrots, orange, and ginger if desired (peeling is optional for a juicer but recommended for blending). Cut them into smaller pieces for easier processing.

Step 3

Core and chop the apple into chunks. No need to peel unless you prefer to.

Step 4

Juicing method: Add the carrots, oranges, apple, and ginger to your juicer in batches, following your machine's instructions. Collect the juice in a large glass or pitcher.

Step 5

Blending method: Add the chopped carrots, orange segments, apple chunks, and ginger to a blender, along with the cold water or ice cubes. Blend until smooth, then strain through a fine mesh strainer or nut milk bag to remove the pulp, if desired.

Step 6

Squeeze the juice from the half lemon into the prepared juice, and stir to combine.

Step 7

Taste and, if desired, add honey for a touch of sweetness. Stir well.

Step 8

Pour the juice into glasses and serve immediately for the freshest flavor and fullest nutritional benefits.
