Now it is time to introduce a healthy twist into your juice in the form of raw carrots.
- 8
For this move, you will need approximately 550 gms of raw carrots.
- 9
Ensure that the carrots you are using are clean before juicing; wash them well to eliminate any dirt and pesticides.
- 10
There's no need to peel them because the skin contains valuable nutrients.
- 11
Chop the carrots into smaller pieces if necessary, so that they fit easily in the juicer.
- 12
Feed the carrots into the juicer, which is still running, and they will get all their juice out. Carrots contain beta-carotene, which is converted to vitamin A in the body and is responsible for healthy skin and eyes.

You will be surprised how nicely the earthy, sweet flavour of carrots goes with the tang of orange juice to create a balanced flavour.

As the juicer works its magic, you'll enjoy the vibrant orange colour that deepens as the carrot juice is mixed with the freshly squeezed orange juice.
- 15
After both oranges and carrots have been juiced, the next step is to have a taste of your product.
- 16
The orange carrot juice should be sweet and refreshing; however, you might want it to be a little sweeter.
- 17
To do this, pour in 2 tablespoons of honey into the pitcher of juice.
- 18
Honey not only serves as a sweetener but also adds its taste and has many health benefits.
- 19
Stir well to ensure that the honey dissolves totally in the juice.
- 20
Taste again. If you prefer this sweetness, do nothing. If you prefer a bit more, add another drizzle of honey or go for whatever you prefer.
- 21
The honey also smooths out the texture of the juice so that drinking it becomes almost slightly indulgent.
- 22
Now that your Carrot Juice is flavourful enough, it's time to serve!
- 23
Pour this juice into glasses divided into four portions to make it presentable and give it a touch of elegance.
- 24
To add freshness, pour the juice over ice. The melted ice cubes will both chill the drink and enhance the visuals.
- 25
You can decorate each glass with a slice of orange or carrot at the rim, which is optional.
- 26
This adds to the beauty of the juice-it is something simply appetizing visually and incites your guests to indulge in the refreshing drink.
- 27
The orange and carrot throw a colourful display.
- 28
Hence, it is not only delicious but also a feast for the eyes.
- 29
If you want to serve it chilled, you could place the pitcher in the freezer for a good 30 minutes before bringing it to the table.

This keeps the juice cold and does not dilute it, keeping the experience fresh and exciting.
