Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Fresh carrots
- 1 cup (peeled and chopped) Pineapple
- 1 large (peeled and segmented) Orange
- 1 small (juiced) Lemon
- 1 cup Water
- 1 tablespoon Honey (optional)
- 4 pieces Ice cubes
Instructions
Wash the carrots thoroughly under running water and peel them. Chop them into small chunks for easier blending.
Peel and core the pineapple, then chop it into bite-sized pieces.
Peel and segment the orange, removing any seeds if necessary.
Juice the lemon and set the juice aside.
In a blender, combine the chopped carrots, pineapple pieces, orange segments, lemon juice, and water.
Blend on high speed for 1-2 minutes or until the mixture is smooth.
For a smoother texture, pour the juice through a fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth into a bowl, pressing down to extract as much liquid as possible. Skip this step if you prefer your juice with pulp.
Taste the juice and add honey if desired, blending again for a few seconds to mix.
Pour the juice into glasses, add 2 ice cubes per glass, and serve immediately. Enjoy your refreshing Citrus Pineapple Carrot Juice!
