Sweet Carrot Juice
Sweet carrot juice is a three-ingredient drink that turns a plain root vegetable into something you can sip cold. Carrots already carry natural sweetness, so the sugar only rounds it out. Straining the purée is what makes the difference, leaving a smooth juice instead of a thick pulp. This Nigerian home-style drink needs only a blender and a sieve, and the water can be adjusted to your preferred thickness.
Instructions
Chop or grate the carrots so they break down easily in the blender.
Put the carrots and sugar into a blender and pour in a small amount of water. Add more water only if the blades are struggling to turn.
Blend until the mixture is a smooth purée with no visible pieces of carrot.
Pour the purée through a strainer to separate the liquid from the pulp, pressing lightly so the juice runs through clear of solids.
Chill the juice in the refrigerator until cold, then serve.
Make it personal.
