CARROT AND CUCUMBER JUICE RECIPE
Carrot and cucumber juice is a simple, nutritious drink packed with vitamins and minerals. Carrots are a great source of beta-carotene, which is converted to Vitamin A in the body. Vitamin A is important for maintaining healthy vision, skin, and immune system. Cucumbers are high in water content and contain important minerals such as potassium, magnesium and silica. The juice is hydrating, nutritious and low in calories, making it a perfect weight-loss aid.
Here's how to make it with your cold press juicer:
Ingredients
-
4 large carrots
-
1 large cucumber
-
1 lemon, peeled
-
1 small piece of ginger
Instructions
Wash and chop the carrots and cucumbers.
Run the ingredients through a juicer, according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Stir the juice to combine the ingredients and serve over ice, if desired. Enjoy!
Note: If using a blender, add 1/2 cup of water and blend until smooth. Then, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any solids.
This juice is a great way to start the day, or as a mid-day pick-me-up, the freshness and lightness of the juice make it a great way to refresh and energize your body. You can add some ginger for an extra zing and to add a spicy kick to the juice or a squeeze of lemon or lime to make it more refreshing.
