Ingredients

1 large or two small lemons, peeled and chopped (make sure you remove the white pithy part)
4 carrots, peeled and chopped (about 150 grams-worth)
2 inches fresh ginger, peeled and chopped
4 cups water
¼ - ⅓ cup pure maple syrup/agave nectar/simple syrup, to taste

Instructions

Set up a large bowl or pitcher with a fine mesh strainer on top.
In an upright blender, combine the chopped lemon, carrots, ginger, and water. Blend on high for a full minute or until mixture is completely liquified.
Run the mixture through the fine strainer, pressing the pulp into the strainer to extract as much liquid as possible. Transfer the strained liquid back to the blender. Add your liquid sweetener of choice to the liquid and blend on high for 20 seconds. Check the lemonade for sweetness, and adjust if necessary. Serve over ice or store in the refrigerator to chill thoroughly.

Recipe Notes

If there were some fresh turmeric roots lying around in my kitchen, I definitely would have added a nice chunk into this pre-blend.

A super fresh and wholesome lemonade made extra nourishing with carrots and ginger. No juicer required!
