Carrot Juice Guide: Benefits, Methods & 5 Must-Try Recipes

    Drinking carrot juice can transform your daily nutrition in ways you might not expect. While most of us know carrots support healthy vision, fresh carrot juice has a wider range of benefits. From strengthening your immune system to giving your skin a natural glow, this vitamin-rich drink has earned its place in kitchens worldwide. 

    This guide helps you get started.

    We break down everything you need to know about making and enjoying carrot juice, complete with methods that work for every lifestyle.

    Let’s dive in.

    Health Benefits of Carrot Juice: Helps More Than Just Your Vision

    There are several effects of carrot juice you can’t miss. One single glass of this juice:  

    1. Has plenty of nutrients: Just one cup of carrot juice offers 94 calories, 2 grams of protein, 22 grams of carbs, and 251% of daily Vitamin A intake. 

    2. Improves immunity: Vitamins A and C are antioxidants. They can save your cells from free radicals and reduce oxidative stress in the body. Carrot juice is an excellent source of these essential nutrients. In addition, Vitamin B6 found in carrot juice benefits your immune system. 

    3. Protects you from cancer: Beta carotene, lutein, and polyacetylenes in carrot juice may help your body attack cancer cells. 

    4. Helps manage blood sugar: Carrot juice has a low glycemic index, which is great for keeping your sugar level in check. Besides, purple carrots contain anthocyanin pigments with anti-inflammatory benefits that assist blood sugar management. 

    5. Strengthens your heart: Potassium, found in carrot juice, protects you from heart diseases because it keeps your blood pressure low. Carrot juice is also rich in antioxidants, as we explained above. These antioxidants have been specifically associated with better heart health.  

    6. Protects liver: One of the benefits of carrot juice is linked to liver health. The carotenoids found in this juice may decrease the risk of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). While there are currently only animal studies to ascertain this, it is true that increasing your intake of vegetables, including carrots, can support overall liver health. Carrot juice also contains soluble fiber and other nutrients that promote better digestion, indirectly benefiting the liver by reducing its workload. Including more nutrient-dense, plant-based foods in your diet can further improve liver function and reduce the risk of metabolic disorders associated with NAFLD.

    Pro tip: You can get all of these benefits and more by following this simple Hurom carrot juice recipe. You need just a few minutes to prepare it.

    What Is Carrot Juice Good For?

    Is carrot juice good for you? By now, you probably know the answer. Yes, this juice is fantastic for people. However, you still deserve to know the answers to a few more specific questions. 

    Is carrot juice good for eyesight?

    Even the simplest carrot juice recipe can help protect your eyes. This root vegetable is a rich source of vitamin A, which is essential for eye health. Many studies have discovered that carrots directly decrease the risk of eye diseases linked to age. 

    Is carrot juice good for skin health?

    Vitamin C found in carrot juice is used for collagen production. This ingredient is what makes human skin strong and elastic. As such, carrot juice improves your skin health. The same vitamin also protects your skin from free radicals that can cause premature aging and wrinkles. 

    Is carrot juice good for kids? 

    Orange carrot juice is great for kids because it’s packed with vitamins and soluble fiber. As such, it’s a healthy snack. Besides, if a toddler has issues eating whole vegetables or refusing to do so, carrot juice might be the short-term answer.  It still provides nutrients, but in a form your kid will enjoy. 

    Pro tip: Try these other delicious juice recipes for kids to help them fall in love with fruits and veggies.

    Is carrot juice good for hair growth? 

    Yes, beta-carotene, Vitamin A, and many antioxidants in carrot juice help hair growth. Here’s how it works: 

    The human body uses beta-carotene to make more Vitamin A, which is then used to regulate sebum production. Sebum is like an oil that moistures your scalp and maintains healthy hair follicles. A well-hydrated scalp reduces dryness, flaking, and irritation, which can create a better environment for hair growth.

    Is carrot juice good for weight loss? 

    One of the benefits of drinking carrot juice is linked to weight loss. First of all, carrots are high in fiber but low in calories, which is ideal when trying to lose weight. Besides, carrot juice is naturally sweet, so it can satisfy sugar cravings in a healthier way than sugary drinks.  Basically, fewer cravings mean easier weight loss efforts.

    Is carrot juice good for pregnancy? 

    Due to Vitamins A and B, minerals, and magnesium, carrot juice is recommended to pregnant women during all trimesters. For example, vitamin A helps the fetus’ teeth and bone development. For moms, vitamin B gives you more energy, alleviates pregnancy symptoms, and reduces the risk of birth defects.

    How Much Carrot Juice is Safe to Drink Daily?

    Adults should consume up to two glasses of carrot juice per day, according to multiple studies researching this juice’s benefits. 

    On the other hand, adults are advised to drink just 4 ounces of carrot juice per day, according to WebMD. That’s about half a glass.

    We advise you to drink juice in moderation. Most studies show that 1-2 glasses of any vegetable or fruit juice per day are perfectly fine, but don’t overdo it.

    Too much carrot juice can cause carotenemia. This is a temporary condition during which your skin will become yellow or even orange. This occurs due to high levels of beta-carotene you have in the blood when you drink too much juice. 

    This also means that children should consume carrot juice in even smaller amounts. Here are the specifics:

    • Children 1-3 years: Up to ½ cup 

    • Children 4-6 years: Up to ¾ cup

    • 6+ and teenagers: 1 cup

    Common Mistakes To Avoid When Preparing Carrot Juice At Home 

    When making carrot juice at home, mistakes can happen. Avoid them to make more delicious and healthier juice in less time. 

    Here’s what to steer clear of:

    Not washing the carrots

    Pesticides and other chemicals might be on those carrots. Wash them well before you peel them! If you just peel them, some of those chemicals may remain on the carrots. 

    Leaving the juice at room temperature for too long 

    Oxidation will break the nutrients and vitamins in the carrot juice if left for too long on the table. This is why carrot juice will change its color if left at room temperature for a long. 

    If you won’t drink it immediately, store your carrot juice in an airtight container and put it in the fridge. 

    Pro tip: We’ll give you more juice storage advice in a second.

    Drink your carrot juice slowly. It will help you with digestion, and you can enjoy it for much longer. 

    Making too much carrot juice

    If you make too much carrot juice and don’t drink it or batch it correctly, it will lose its health properties and taste. It’s always best to avoid food waste. 

    Pro tip: The Hurom H400 Easy Clean Slow Juicer is great for preparing juice in batches. 

    Prepare The Ultimate Carrot Juice: Essential Tips

    Whether you’re making ordinary or Jamaican carrot juice, these tips will help you. After all, you want delicious and healthy juice every single time. Try these when making cabbage carrot juice or other carrot juice recipes, and you will see the difference. 

    Use smaller carrots

    Smaller carrots are more delicious and usually have a sweeter flavor. Using them makes your carrot juice taste better. Yes, it takes more time to make juice from smaller carrots (if you have a centrifugal juicer), but this tip works better than you may think.

    However, Hurom juicers have large hoppers, so you can simply add more of these small carrots at once.

    Try adding additional ingredients

    If you want to experiment and try different recipes, go for it. Adding apples, celery, or mandarin can make a huge difference. 

    Use organic carrots

    The differences are not massive, but organic carrot juice has a lower risk of chemicals and pesticides. You need this if you want your juice to be healthier.

    Use a quality juicer

    Low-quality juicers don’t extract all the juice from carrots. Besides, making carrot juice with a blender or grater simply means you’ll need to add water, which makes your juice “weak” and diluted. 

    How You Should Store Your Fresh Carrot Juice 

    To get the health benefits of carrot juice even after you just made it, you need to know how to store it. Using airtight containers is mandatory. You cannot store fresh carrot juice in a glass or a bowl, or it will oxidize.

    Pro tip: Read these awesome juice storage tips to keep your carrot juice fresh for longer.

    This airtight container should ideally be made from glass. Place it in the fridge and,  ideally, consume the juice within 24-72 hours if you’re using a cold-press juicer. Juice made with centrifugal juicers oxidizes faster, so it doesn’t stay fresh as long. However, you can keep the juice in the refrigerator for up to 3 months. After that time frame, the health benefits of your juice will start to decline.

    The Final Word

And the fact that you can try different recipes is also why so many people love carrot juice. Try it and become one of them. 

    However, you need the right juicer for carrots, so take our juicer quiz and see what fits!

    FAQ 

    Can I drink carrot juice every single day?

    Yes, you can drink carrot juice every single day in moderation. Adults can consume up to 2 glasses of this juice per day. The amount is smaller for children. 

    What fruit will be the perfect addition to carrot juice?

    There are many options available. Some great examples include oranges, apples, pineapple, and many more. Try to see which one tastes better. Or, consider the health benefits these fruits have.

    How many carrots do I need for one cup of carrot juice? 

    In general, you need 10-11 carrots to make one glass of juice. But this depends on the size of the carrots and the juicer you own. With Hurom juicers, for example, you can make 30-50% more juice from the same amount of produce.

    Does carrot juice detoxify the body?

    Carrot juice contains antioxidants like beta-carotene, which may support the body’s natural detoxification processes. However, it doesn’t "detoxify" the body directly. Detoxification is primarily managed by the liver and kidneys.

    Is carrot juice high in sugar?

    Carrot juice does contain natural sugars, typically around 9-12 grams per cup (240ml). To put this into perspective, current guidelines suggest a maximum of 25 grams of sugar for women and 36 grams for men. While carrot juice isn’t excessively high in sugar, it’s important to consume it in moderation. 

    Can I drink carrot juice before bed?

    Yes, carrot juice can be consumed before bed. Its natural sweetness may satisfy late-night cravings, and the beta-carotene content supports overall health. However, avoid drinking excessive amounts because it could affect blood sugar levels.

    What time is best to drink carrot juice?

    The best time to drink carrot juice is in the morning on an empty stomach or as a midday snack. This allows your body to absorb the nutrients efficiently and increases energy levels.

    Is it better to eat carrots or drink carrot juice?

    Eating whole carrots provides more insoluble fiber, which supports digestion and satiety. Drinking carrot juice delivers concentrated nutrients and soluble fiber, so a balance of both is ideal for a healthy diet.

    Beyond Christmas Juice Recipes

    Yes, Christmas juices are a healthy option for your holiday parties and a new way of making fun drinks, but juices are not the only way you can use your Hurom this Christmas. 

     

    Here are 3 festive bonus recipes you can make other than juice. 

    Cinnamon Almond Milk 

    Almond milk is a favorite among Hurmo users, and for good reason! Our slow juicer provides clean almond milk free of chemicals and processed artificial sugar. 

     

    1. Place almonds in a bowl and cover them with water, letting them soak overnight or for 6–8 hours. This softens the almonds, making them ideal for juicing. Use 1 cup of almonds to yield approximately 1 cup of almond milk.
    2. Drain the soaking water and thoroughly rinse the almonds. Refill the bowl with fresh water.
    3. Start your slow juicer and use a ladle to alternate adding equal parts of almonds and water into the juicer.
    4. Continue until all the almonds and water have been processed.
    5. Watch as the almonds transform into creamy milk flowing from the juicer.

     

    This almond milk follows our original recipe, but add a few sticks of crushed cinnamon to improve the taste at the end of the process. 

    Cranberry Sauce 

    Sick of the same orange juice and seasonal cranberry juice? Try this sauce instead!

    Ingredients (for 10 people):

    1. 15 cups of cranberries
    2. 5 cup of apples
    3. 1 cup of ginger
    4. 2.5 cups of tangerines
    5. Cinnamon
    6. Nutmeg

    Steps:

    1. Clean and prepare all the ingredients for juicing.
    2. Juice the cranberries, apples, ginger, and tangerines. For texture, use a fine strainer for a smoother result or a coarse strainer for a chunkier one.
    3. After juicing, combine the pulp and juice in a pot over medium-high heat. Cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add cinnamon and nutmeg for added spice while it simmers.
    4. Once ready, use the sauce as a topping for waffles or store it in sterilized jars for future use!

    From Thanksgiving to Christmas Eve, cranberries are the life and center of any holiday recipe, so it’s no surprise to find ourselves with bowls full of fresh cranberries. 

     

    This is one of the many options you have to transform your leftover fruit into sauces. 

    Christmas Tea

    In these cold seasons, tea seems to be the perfect drink to sip in front of the chimney. This is how you can use your fruit pulp to make your teas even better.

     

    Make your tea of choice; we recommend black or jasmine tea leaves to mix with sweet fruits like apples, pears, pineapple, or grapes. Also, add a tablespoon of your favorite fruit pulp into the mix from the get-go.

     

    This delicious creation is a great way to satisfy your sweet tooth or bring light to your holiday gathering.

    How to Make Cold-Pressed Juice Without a Juicer (And with One!)

     

    If you want fresh, nutrient-packed juice at home, you’re on the right page. 

    We’ll teach you all our secrets on how to make cold-pressed juice

    We’ll talk about all of this in a second, but cold-pressed juice keeps all the good stuff intact—vitamins, minerals, natural flavor—without the added heat that traditional juicers use. 

    Basically, we’ll go over everything from choosing the right ingredients to storing your juice so it lasts (because, let’s be real, fresh juice doesn’t stay fresh forever). 

    And whether you’re new to juicing or a longtime fan, we’ll share a few tips and recipes to make the process even easier.

    Is Cold-Pressed Juice Good for You?

    Cold-pressed juice is packed with natural health benefits because you’re basically adding more nutrients to your diet. 

    We love the entire cold pressing process because it keeps out excess heat, which damages essential nutrients. And that’s a massive problem with high-speed juicing. 

    The point is to get the right nutrient content with all the good stuff, like vitamins and minerals. These healthy fruits and veggies will give you:

    • More energy for your day-to-day life or before a workout
    • A quick source of vitamins and minerals that’s easy to digest
    • Better immunity because you’re getting undamaged antioxidants
    • Healthier digestive system thanks to all that soluble fiber
    • Better eye health
    • Shinier, stronger hair and nails
    • Improved skin health

    Besides, you get a delicious juice that looks more vibrant, tastes fresher, and lasts longer.

    Like so:

    And yes, it’s cold-pressed juice in the right-hand glass – that color and nutrients are exactly what you want for you and your family.

    The Right Ingredients for Cold-Pressed Juice

    We always say that the best cold-pressed juices start with fresh, high-quality ingredients. 

    We advise you to test a variety of fruits and vegetables, especially leafy greens and root vegetables. The point (as always) is to create a nutrient-dense juice that’s rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. 

    Pro tip: Tropical fruits like mango and pineapple add natural sweetness, while softer fruits like berries make the juice smoother. And, of course, more flavorful.

    So, if you want to get that balanced mix of flavors and nutrients, combine fresh fruit, root vegetables, and tough stems like kale or spinach in your juice. 

    Mixing up your ingredients: 

    • Adds more variety to your diet, which is important because that ensures digestive health. Besides, the digestive system is basically the home of 70-80% of your immunity.
    • Different types of juices offer different health benefits. For example, green juices are great for detoxifying, while fruit blends give you a lot of energy before a workout.

    That brings us to the next question (and trust us, we get asked this A LOT):

    How Many Fruits and Veggies Go into a Cup of Juice?

    We’d love to give you one clear-cut number, but things are a little bit more complicated.

    The amount of produce you need for a single cup of juice varies a lot depending on what you’re juicing. To break it down:

    • Juicy produce (like grapes, berries, cucumbers, or apples): About one pound makes a cup.
    • Leafy greens (like spinach, lettuce, or wheatgrass): You need nearly two pounds per cup.
    • Herbs (like parsley): Four to eight bunches per cup—talk about concentrated flavor!
    • Roots (like carrots, beets, and ginger): These tougher veggies require closer to 1.5 to  2 pounds per cup of juice, as they have a lower water content.

    How to Make Cold-Pressed Juice Without a Juicer

    Even if you don’t have the best cold-press juicer at home, you can still make cold-pressed juice with a few simple tools.

    You can try these options:

    Option 1 (with a blender):

    1. Gather your ingredients: Start with your favorite fruits and veggies. For leafy greens or tougher ingredients like stalks of celery, chop them up with a sharp knife, so they’re easier to blend.
    2. Blend with a bit of water: Put everything into a food processor or blender, adding a splash of plain water to help the juicing process. Blend until it’s as smooth as possible.
    3. Strain the juice: Pour the mixture through a fine strainer or cheesecloth into a bowl. Use the back of a spoon to press down on the pulp, squeezing out every bit of nutrient-dense juice.
    4. Pour and store: Transfer the juice into a mason jar or glass bottle. Cold-pressed juice doesn’t have preservatives, so try to drink it within 72 hours to keep it fresh and full of flavor. Keep it in the fridge in the meantime!

    Option 2 (no machine):

    1. Gather and prep Your Ingredients: Choose your favorite fruits, veggies, and leafy greens. Chop everything as finely as possible using a sharp knife—this will help you release more juice. For leafy greens or tough ingredients like celery, chop them extra small.
    2. Mash the ingredients by hand: Place your chopped ingredients into a large mixing bowl. Use a pestle, a sturdy potato masher, or the back of a spoon to crush and mash the ingredients thoroughly. Keep mashing until you see juice starting to form.
    3. Press Through a cheesecloth or fine mesh strainer: Take a large piece of cheesecloth or a fine strainer and place it over another bowl. Pour the mashed mixture into the cheesecloth, then twist and squeeze it tightly to extract the juice. Use your hands to press down and squeeze out every drop of juice from the pulp.

    As you can see, this option needs a bit more elbow grease and more ingredients.

    But here’s a simpler way to do it:

    How to Make Cold Pressed Juice with a Juicer

    If you’ve got a slow juicer on hand, making cold-pressed juice is as easy as it gets. Just a few simple steps, and you’ll have fresh juice that’s nutrient-dense and full of flavor. Here’s how we do it:

     

     

     

    1. Gather and wash your ingredients: No need for chopping with most Hurom juicers because they have wide feed chutes that handle whole fruits and veggies. Yes, even leafy greens and root vegetables. Just wash everything thoroughly to remove any dirt or residues.
    2. Add ingredients to the juicer: Place your fruits and vegetables directly into the feed chute. Start with softer produce like soft fruits, then add tougher ingredients like carrots or beets for a balanced juice. Your juicer will handle the rest, separating the juice from the pulp, which goes straight into the pulp container.
    3. Collect and store: Pour the juice into a glass. You’ll want to drink it right away to enjoy peak flavor and nutrients, but if you’re saving it for later, store it in the fridge and aim to drink it within 48–72 hours.
    4. Quick clean-up: A lot of our Hurom juicers are built with the patented Easy-Clean Technology, so rinsing is a breeze. Just disassemble the parts and rinse them under a stream of cold water. No scrubbing, no hassle—just a quick rinse, and your juicer is ready for the next batch.

    Side note: That’s why we like to say Hurom makes healthy living easy!

    How to Make Cold Pressed Juice Last Longer

    Fresh, cold-pressed juice is best enjoyed right away. 

    But we know life is never that easy. So, we’ll share a few tricks to make sure each batch of juice lasts longer. 

    As a side note, we have this awesome article on best batch juicing tips.

    1. Use glass bottles or jars: Tightly sealed glass containers like mason jars prevent oxidation and keep the juice fresh longer.
    2. Fill to the top: Minimize air exposure by filling the container to the very top before sealing it. Less air means less oxidation, which is what degrades the nutritional content.
    3. Keep it cold: Store the juice at a steady temperature in the coldest part of your fridge. For best results, aim to keep it at 34-38°F.
    4. Add a splash of lemon: Adding a bit of lemon juice makes the juice tastier but also provides natural antioxidants that keep the juice fresh for longer.
    5. Freeze for longer storage: If you need juice to last beyond a few days, freezing it is a great option. Just remember to leave a little room at the top of your container for expansion.

    How to Store Cold-Press Juice

    Storing your cold-pressed juice properly can make all the difference in preserving its nutritional benefits and flavor. Here’s how to keep your juice fresh for as long as possible:

    1. Choose glass over plastic: Glass bottles help retain the juice’s taste and nutrient density better than plastic containers. They’re also easy to clean and won’t hold onto flavors or odors.
    2. Refrigerate immediately: As soon as you make your juice, store it in the fridge to prevent any loss of essential nutrients. Cold temperatures slow down oxidation, keeping the juice fresh and flavorful.
    3. Limit sun exposure: Keep juice away from direct sunlight, as exposure to UV rays can degrade the nutrient content over time.
    4. Label and date each bottle: To keep track, label each container with the date it was made. Cold-pressed juice is best within 48–72 hours, so you’ll know when it’s time for a fresh batch.

    Pro tip: We like to store juice in glass containers because it keeps that “just-made” taste for longer and is better for the environment, too.

    FAQ

    How do they make cold-pressed juice?
    Cold-pressed juice is made using a slow pressing method of 40-100 rotations per minute, which extracts juice without creating excess heat. Avoiding high speeds is what keeps nutrients intact.

    How do you cold press juice without a machine?
    If you don’t have a juicer, you can use a food processor to blend fruits and veggies, then strain the pulp through a fine cloth or cheesecloth to get a batch of juice that’s close to cold-pressed. Alternatively, you can mash the ingredients yourself by hand, but it will take much longer. Besides, you won’t get dry pulp as you would with a juicer, which means you’re losing lots of nutrients and healthy, soluble fiber.

    What is the difference between cold press and juicing?
    Cold pressing is a type of juicing that avoids heat and high speeds, preserving more nutrients. Regular juicing typically means using a centrifugal juicer that creates more oxidation and may lose nutrients faster.

    What is the 80/20 rule for juicing?
    The 80/20 rule suggests using 80% vegetables and 20% fruits in your juice. This helps keep the juice low in sugar but full of nutritional benefits.

    What vegetables should not be juiced?
    Some vegetables, like raw potatoes, are best avoided in juices. Others, like beet greens and large amounts of cruciferous veggies, are best used in moderation due to their strong flavor or impact on digestion. Plus, you can’t even juice some fruits in the first place, like bananas.

    Is it okay to drink cold-pressed juice every day?
    Yes, daily cold-pressed juice can be a great source of vitamins and minerals. Just remember to include a variety of fruits and veggies to get a wide range of nutrients and health benefits.

      Hurom's Homemade Lemonade Recipe

      Perfect for a summer cookout, simple cocktail, or helping a child's entrepreneurial dreams, homemade lemonade is incredibly simple and refreshingly delicious when done right. In addition, vitamin C from the lemons helps relieve fatigue while also eliminating toxins from your system.

      Featured Health Benefit:
      • Rejuvenate
      Ingredients:
      • 1.5 Cups Lemon Juice
      • 1.5 Cups Sugar
      • 6 Cups Water
      Instructions:
      1. To make simple syrup, combine equal parts sugar and water to a saucepan. Heat on medium, occasionally stirring until mixture is clear and sugar is dissolved. Allow to come down to room temperature, or put in the fridge to cool. (Note. If you're in a pinch, you can always add the sugar directly to the pitcher and aggressively stir to dissolve the sugar.)
      2. Cut lemons in half, and juice using a Hurom Citrus Juicer. Make sure to keep or discard the pulp, depending on your preference. You can also use your slow juicer and toss in the cut lemons, which will include some of the rind's oils as well.
      3. Add simple syrup, lemon juice, and remaining water to a pitcher. Stir well and enjoy!

      Hurom's Lemonade tips:

      While Meyer lemons may be difficult to come across, they're perfect for lemonade. Typically sweeter and more orange-like in flavor, you won't need to offset the acidity with as much sugar as you would with regular lemons. Try and experiment to find a ratio that works for you!

      When choosing lemons, always look for tender, heavy lemons. If you're having trouble deciding, try picking up ones that are around ths asme size, and feel which one is heavier. The heavier lemon will be juicier.

      Unsure what to do with your leftover lemon peels? Toss them in with some liquor to infuse, make some candied lemon peels, or zest for salads!

      One more tip! Letting lemons come to room temperature before juicing helps to achieve maximum yield.
