Ingredients

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

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

  • Using cold oranges and carrots means your juice is instantly refreshing, without needing ice that waters it down.
  • Gently scraping the ginger with a spoon helps remove just the skin without wasting the nutrient-rich root underneath. This keeps all that bold, spicy flavor intact with minimal waste.
  • If the juice is too tangy or spicy, toss in another orange to sweeten things up. If it feels too sweet, a splash more lemon or a pinch of turmeric adds brightness and a little anti-inflammatory boost.
  • A tiny bit of sea salt or cayenne pepper can bring out the natural sweetness and give the juice a little extra zip without overwhelming the palate.
  • Strain your juice through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth after juicing to remove pulp and make it easier to drink, especially if you prefer a smoother sip.
  • Use a blender if you don’t have a juicer - just add the  ingredients to a blender with a little water, blend until smooth, then strain through a nut milk bag or fine mesh strainer.
Serve: Pair orange carrot ginger juice with a fresh fruit salad, a bowl of yogurt with granola, french toast, or an egg scramble for breakfast or brunch. It also makes a great mid-afternoon pick-me-up when served with a handful of raw nuts, green flax crackers with hummus, deviled eggs, or a slice of avocado toast.
Store: Drink orange carrot juice is best consumed immediately. To make ahead, pour it into an airtight glass jar or bottle and keep in the fridge for 1 to 2 days. Before drinking, give it a good shake. For longer storage, freeze the juice in ice cube trays, then thaw as needed.
