Serves: 2-4
Ingredients
  • 1½ cup coconut water
  • 1 cup filtered cold water
  • 4 carrots
  • 2 oranges
  • 1 juice of lemon
  • 2-4 pitted dates
  • small piece of ginger
  • 1 tsp turmeric
  • 4 drops of tangerine or orange oil from doterra
Instructions
  1. Wash and peel carrots and add to a strong blender like the Vitamix.
  2. Peel and de-seed oranges {keep the white of the skin as it has many nutrients like bioflavoniods}.
  3. Juice the lemon and add it to blender with the cold water and coconut water.
  4. Peel ginger and add with turmeric, pitted dates and blend on high until all ingredients are creamy.
  5. Add tangerine or orange essential oils and blend.
Notes
If you like ginger's pungent flavor, add a bigger chunk. Starting off with a smaller piece and tasting it is helpful. If it is too bitter for your liking add an extra date or two. When peeling the orange, if the white part of the skin comes off juice that too as it has healthy nutrients! You can keep some of the juice in the refrigerator for the next day but filling a glass jar to the top so that oxygen doesn't oxidize it's potency will help preserve it's nutrients. Please use organic when you can.
