The easiest and fastest way to get some immunity-boosting goodness into your body is with a fresh pressed juice. But buying pressed juice at the grocery store or a smoothie shop gets really expensive. This low-cost carrot-based juice was created as an easy alternative to those pricey store-bought juices. Note: you’ll need a juicer for this recipe.
Ingredients for Immunity-Boosting Carrot Juice
- 1/4 cup fresh ginger chopped
- 3 medium chiogga beets (or red beets)
- 1 lb multicolored carrots
- 1 cup strawberries
- 1 mango (peeled and pitted)
- 2 cups blueberries
- 1 cup blackberries
- 2 pinches of fresh mint (optional)
- squeeze of lemon
Directions for Immunity-Boosting Carrot Juice
- Thoroughly wash your produce
- If your produce is organic, leave the skin on (except for the mango). If produce is not organic, remove skin with a peeler to avoid any pesticides getting in your juice.
- Process all your produce though a juicer. No particular order.
- Strain the juice with a colander for a smoother/thinner juice.
- Serve your finished juice over ice and garnish with your desired fruit (optional)
