Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Fresh oranges
- 1 medium Carrot
- 0.5 medium Cucumber
- 1 stalk Celery stalk
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger
- 2 teaspoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Honey (optional)
- 4 pieces Ice cubes
- 0.5 cup Water
Instructions
Peel the oranges and cut them into quarters.
Wash and scrub the carrot, cucumber, and celery stalk thoroughly. Chop them into smaller chunks for easier blending.
Peel a small piece of fresh ginger and grate about 1 teaspoon (adjust to taste).
In a blender, add the orange quarters, chopped carrot, cucumber, celery, grated ginger, and 2 teaspoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice.
Pour in 0.5 cup of water to help blend the ingredients smoothly.
Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and well-combined.
Place a fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth over a large bowl or pitcher and strain the juice to remove pulp (optional, depending on desired texture).
Taste the strained juice, and if you prefer it sweeter, mix in 1 teaspoon of honey.
Pour the juice into glasses over ice cubes for a chilled beverage, and serve immediately.
