Ingredients:
1 medium carrot, peeled and chopped
1 small beetroot, peeled and chopped
1-inch piece of fresh ginger, peeled
1 cup red or green grapes (preferably seedless)
1/2 cup orange juice (freshly squeezed if possible)
1/2 cup water or coconut water (for added hydration)
1 tablespoon honey or agave syrup (optional, for sweetness)
Ice cubes (optional)
Directions:
Begin by preparing all the ingredients. Peel and chop the carrot and beetroot into smaller pieces, making them easier to blend. Peel the ginger and chop it into smaller chunks.
Place the carrot, beetroot, ginger, and grapes into a blender. Add the orange juice and water (or coconut water) to help with the blending process.
Blend everything together until smooth. If the consistency is too thick, you can add more water or coconut water to achieve your desired texture.
Taste the smoothie and adjust the sweetness by adding honey or agave syrup if needed.
If you prefer a chilled smoothie, add ice cubes and blend again until frosty and smooth.
Serving and Storage Tips:
Serve your smoothie immediately after blending to enjoy it at its freshest and most nutritious.
If you need to store the smoothie for later, place it in an airtight container and refrigerate. The smoothie will stay fresh for up to 24 hours, but it’s best consumed within a few hours to maximize the nutrients.
If you want to prepare the ingredients in advance, you can chop and store the fruits and vegetables in a zip-lock bag in the freezer. This will not only make the smoothie colder but also preserve the nutrients.
