    FAQs

    Which Carrots Are The Best For Juicing?

    • You can use any type of carrot for juicing. This is up to you!

    What Are The Health Benefits Of Carrot Juice?

    • Drinking carrot juice allows you to consume more carrots than you could typically eat. Carrot juice has a lot of health benefits; it’s high in fiber, has the ability to strengthen your bones through the calcium content it has to offer, and is rich in beta-carotene and vitamin A.

    Do I Need To Peel The Carrot Before Juicing?

    • You do not need to peel your carrots before juicing. However, I do recommend washing them before use. 

    Combination & Addins

    • Ginger gives this carrot juice a yummy and refreshing kick. 

    Expert Tips

    • You can add more water if you want the carrot combination in your food processor to get a juicer consistency. Keep in mind that the more water you add, the more watered down your juice will be so try to add as little as possible. 
    • Discard the carrot pulp or save it for carrot cake!
