My kids are picky eaters and I go crazy trying out various recipes to make them eat healthy food. Trust me it is one hell of a task. I try my best to give them things that are rich in vitamins, proteins and calcium.
Recently we went for an eye checkup for my daughter and got to know she has high number and is now wearing specs. This further hiked my pressure on giving her food rich in vitamin A, since we are vegetarians so I can’t prepare fish. To compensate it, I try out other recipes and drinks, one such is my all time favorite carrot juice drink, I use to have it in winters almost daily when I was a kid.
Now being a mother I try to prepare this for my kids too! This is one juice I adore because I consider it to be too healthy and rich source of nutrients.
Few benefits of Carrots that I know are that it improves vision, helps fight cancer, really good for the skin,cleanse the body, good for the heart. I am sure thier would be many more such benefits but I have shared that have come to my mind right now. So why wait, go and have a glass full of carrot juice for yourself 
…… to help you with the simple no rocket science recipe….here I go with the recipe I learnt from my mom, simple and easy but damn healthy!!
Ingredients -
- Carrots - 4 large size (washed well, peeled and chopped)
- Ginger - 1/2 inch chunk (washed well and peeled)
- Glucose - 1 tablespoon
- Oranges - 2 - 3
- Mint leaves - 2 -4 ( optional, I have not added this time because I was not having them in my pantry but I recommend it )
Method -
Wash and peel the carrots and ginger, chop them and then blend all the ingredients in a juice, add 1 tablespoon of glucose powder to it and mix well ( I add this for my kids ). Garnish it with a carrot slice. Serve immediately or chill the drink in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Serves 1-2
Enjoy this health drink!!

wow…. the last pic is good. at home we make carrot juice in similar way without adding ginger. sometimes we add apple too. but i will try with ginger the next time i make carrot juice.
Thanks dear, I really struggle a lot while clicking any kinds of glasses
Apple surely makes this juice equally nutricious and sweet to taste, I also add 1/2 beetroot to it but when I prepared it today I wasnt having beetroot in my stock, try adding beet also along with ginger,it’s too healthy!
