🧺 INGREDIENTS: (Yields 2 servings)
- 3 medium carrots (peeled if desired)
- 2 small beets (peeled and trimmed)
- 2 green apples (cored, skin on or off based on preference)
- ½ inch fresh ginger (optional, for warmth and digestion)
- Juice of ½ lemon (optional, for brightness and preservation)
- ½ cup cold water (optional, for blending or thinning)
👩🔬 INSTRUCTIONS:
Step 1: Prep the Produce
Wash all ingredients thoroughly. Peel the beets and ginger, and trim the ends of the carrots. Core the apples and chop everything into chunks suitable for your juicer or blender.
Step 2: Juice or Blend
If using a juicer: Feed the carrots, beets, apples, and ginger through the chute, alternating ingredients to balance texture and flow. Collect the juice in a clean container.
If using a blender: Add all chopped ingredients to the blender with ½ cup cold water. Blend until smooth. Strain through a fine mesh sieve or nut milk bag to extract the juice, pressing firmly to get every drop.
Step 3: Add Lemon & Chill
Stir in fresh lemon juice to brighten the flavor and help preserve the color. Chill in the fridge for 10–15 minutes or serve immediately over ice.
Step 4: Serve & Savor
Pour into glass mugs or jars. Garnish with a thin apple slice or a sprig of mint if desired. Sip slowly and enjoy the invigorating blend of flavors and nutrients.
🌟 Variations & Tips:
- Spicy Kick: Add cayenne pepper or turmeric for an anti-inflammatory boost.
- Sweeter Option: Use red apples instead of green for a naturally sweeter juice.
- Fiber-Rich Smoothie: Skip straining and enjoy as a thick smoothie with a spoon.
- Storage: Best consumed fresh, but can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 24 hours. Shake before serving.
