Method
 

  1. Rinse the carrots thoroughly under cool running water using a vegetable brush to remove any dirt. (1 minute)

  3. Slice the carrots into pieces that fit your juicer's feed tube. (1 minute)
  4. Wash the oranges, peel them if necessary, and cut in half. (1 minute)
  5. Turn on your juicer and slowly feed the carrot pieces through until all juice is extracted. (about 3 minutes)
  6. Feed the orange halves through the juicer to extract the citrus juice. (about 2 minutes)
  7. (Optional) Pour the juice through a fine mesh strainer for 30 seconds to remove excess pulp for a smoother texture.
  8. Pour the fresh juice into glasses, add ice cubes if desired, and serve immediately.
