Equipment

1 Juicer masticating or centrifugal
1 High-speed blender for the blender method
1 Nut milk bag or fine-mesh sieve to strain the blender version
2 Airtight glass bottles for storing
1 Budget cold press juicer a great value alternative
1 Budget blender a great value alternative

Ingredients

Juice base

3 medium carrots, scrubbed
2 medium oranges, peeled
1 inch fresh turmeric, peeled or 1/2 tsp ground turmeric
1/2 lemon, peeled
1 pinch black pepper helps your body absorb the turmeric

Optional extras

1 inch fresh ginger, peeled optional, adds a bit of heat
1/2 apple, cored optional, extra sweetness

Instructions

Juicer method

Wash everything, then peel the oranges and lemon. Scrub the carrots and the turmeric.
Feed the carrots, oranges, turmeric and lemon (and ginger, if using) through your juicer.
Stir in the black pepper, pour into a chilled glass and drink straight away.

Blender method

Roughly chop the carrots and oranges, then add everything except the pepper to a high-speed blender with 1/2 cup of cold water.
Blend on high until completely smooth.
Strain through a nut milk bag or fine-mesh sieve.
Stir in the black pepper, then serve.

Notes

Carrots do most of the sweet lifting here, so buy them fresh and firm rather than pre-bagged.

Turmeric stains anything it touches, including your hands and the juicer. Rinse the parts straight away and store the juice in glass, not plastic.

The pinch of black pepper is the one step worth keeping. It helps your body actually absorb the curcumin in the turmeric.
