Why You Should Try This Recipe
- Easy & Refreshing: It's an easy juice recipe bursting with flavors and just a hint of spice.
- Healthy Juice: It's a healthy drink like my Fennel Juice with nutrient-packed fresh ingredients and no added sugars.
Ingredients & Notes
See the recipe card for full information on ingredients and quantities.
- Carrots: Use fresh carrots. I try to go for locally grown (from farmers I know) or organic. And I always buy extra to make this Carrot Orange Soup or Carrot And Banana Smoothie.
- Fresh oranges: I usually get the type of oranges known to be sweet and juicy, like navel oranges or Valencia oranges. Blood oranges are also a great choice.
- Apple: Choose anything sweet or semi-sweet, such as Gala apples, Red Delicious, Fuji, or Golden Delicious.
- Lemon: This fruit adds a subtle tanginess to balance the naturally sweet flavors.
- Fresh ginger: An anti-inflammatory medicinal herb adding a hint of spice. Feel free to add more of this powerful root than the recipe card suggests. Use any leftovers to make my Avocado Apple Smoothie or Melon Ginger Smoothie.
- Coconut water: Always go for an unsweetened version. It's a great source of natural minerals and absolutely refreshing in this delicious homemade juice.
Equipment
- All you need is a high-speed blender—I love my Vitamix, but any high-speed blender will do.
- A nut milk bag or mesh strainer. I prefer a nut milk bag because it's easier to get all the juice out. If you opt for a strainer, it's best to use a spoon to help push the juice through.
- Pyrex jug or bowl: Make sure your bowl is large enough to capture all that delicious juice.
