Ingredient Breakdown for Carrot & Orange Juice
Oranges (6, peeled and halved)
Sweet, juicy, and packed with vitamin C — these give the juice a bright, fresh citrus flavor that wakes up your taste buds!
Carrots (3, peeled and chopped)
Naturally sweet and full of beta-carotene (which is great for your eyes!), carrots add a lovely earthy sweetness and a beautiful orange color.
Cold Water
Used to lighten the juice a bit and make it extra refreshing, especially on hot days.
Ice
To keep your juice cool and refreshing — perfect for summer mornings or after playtime outside.
Honey or Maple Syrup (optional)
A little extra sweetness if you want it — both are natural sweeteners that add a gentle flavor without overdoing the sugar.
