Ingredients:
4 medium carrots, peeled
1-inch piece of fresh ginger root, peeled
1-inch piece of fresh turmeric root, peeled (or 1 teaspoon of ground turmeric)
1 tablespoon of lemon juice (optional, for added zest)
1-2 teaspoons of honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
1 ½ cups of filtered water (adjust for consistency)
A pinch of black pepper (to activate turmeric’s curcumin)
Instructions:
Begin by preparing your ingredients. Peel the carrots, ginger, and turmeric root. If you’re using ground turmeric instead of fresh, you can skip the peeling step for the turmeric.
Cut the carrots into smaller pieces to make them easier to blend or juice.
Place the carrots, ginger, turmeric, and lemon juice (if using) into a juicer or blender.
If using a blender: Add the water and blend until smooth. Once blended, strain the juice through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove any pulp.
If using a juicer: Simply juice all the ingredients and move on to the next step.
After juicing, taste your elixir. If you prefer a sweeter juice, add honey or maple syrup to taste.
For an extra health boost, add a pinch of black pepper to your juice. This enhances the absorption of curcumin from the turmeric.
Stir well, and your Carrot Ginger Turmeric Juice is ready to serve!
Serving and Storage Tips:
Serve the juice immediately for the best taste and maximum nutritional benefit. You can pour it over ice if you prefer a chilled drink.
If you have leftovers, store the juice in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Keep in mind that fresh juices are most beneficial when consumed soon after preparation, as some of the nutrients may degrade over time.
To avoid separation, shake or stir the juice before drinking if stored.
