Perfect Pineapple Turmeric Carrot Lemon Juice

Ingredients

2 cups fresh pineapple chunks (about 1/2 a medium pineapple, peeled and cored)

1 large carrot, peeled and chopped into 1-inch pieces

1-inch piece fresh turmeric root, peeled (or 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric)

1 medium lemon, peeled and segmented (or 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice)

1 cup cold water (or coconut water for extra hydration)

1 tablespoon honey or agave (optional, for added sweetness)

Pinch of black pepper (to enhance turmeric absorption)

Optional: a few ice cubes for serving

Instructions

Prepare the Ingredients:

Peel and core the pineapple, cutting it into manageable chunks for blending or juicing. Peel the carrot and chop into pieces. Peel the turmeric root with a spoon or knife (wear gloves to avoid staining), and peel the lemon, removing the bitter white pith—keep the juicy flesh intact.

Blend the Juice:

In a high-powered blender, combine the pineapple chunks, carrot pieces, turmeric root (or ground turmeric), lemon segments (or juice), cold water, honey or agave (if using), and a pinch of black pepper.

Blend on high for 1-2 minutes until completely smooth and vibrant—the mixture should be a bright golden-orange with a silky consistency.

Strain (Optional):

For a smoother juice, pour the mixture through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a pitcher or bowl, pressing with a spoon to extract all the liquid—discard the pulp or save for smoothies or baking. If you prefer a thicker, fiber-rich juice, skip this step.

Serve:

Pour the juice into glasses over a few ice cubes, if desired, for a chilled, elegant presentation. Stir gently to ensure the flavors are well blended.

Serve immediately—enjoy the sweet pineapple, zesty lemon, and earthy turmeric in every refreshing sip! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days—shake before serving as it may settle.

Tips

Use a juicer instead of a blender if you prefer a pulp-free result—process the pineapple, carrot, turmeric, and lemon, then stir in water and honey separately.

Adjust sweetness by tasting after blending—add more honey or a splash of pineapple juice if you like it sweeter, keeping the balance refined.

Pair with a light breakfast or enjoy solo as a mid-day refresher for an elegant, health-boosting experience.

This Perfect Pineapple Turmeric Carrot Lemon Juice is a cool, elegant delight, blending tropical sweetness with earthy spice into a refined, invigorating masterpiece!
