I like this recipe because it’s simple, wholesome, and full of clean flavors. I enjoy how the carrots add natural sweetness while the spinach blends in smoothly without overpowering the taste. It’s a great way for me to add more vegetables into my day in a refreshing form.
Ingredients
(Tip: You’ll find the full list of Ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
4 medium carrots, peeled and chopped
2 cups fresh spinach leaves
1 small apple, cored and chopped
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
½ to 1 cup cold water, as needed
Directions
I start by washing and preparing all the ingredients, making sure the carrots and spinach are clean and chopped into manageable pieces.
If I’m using a blender, I add the carrots, spinach, apple, lemon juice, and water, then blend until completely smooth. I strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer or nut milk bag if I want a smoother juice.
If I’m using a juicer, I run the carrots, spinach, and apple through the juicer and stir in the lemon juice at the end.
I serve the juice immediately while it’s fresh and bright.
