You don’t need a juicer to make healthy carrot juice! With just 4 ingredients, this tropical carrot juice recipe is ready in minutes. No juicer required!

One of my favorite ways to sneak veggies into our diet is via fruit smoothies! Something about having a whole serving of veggies snuck into your breakfast makes me feel so productive and ready to crush the day.
My go-to is usually a plain and simple green smoothie, but I recently rediscovered this tropical carrot juice way back in the blog archives and thought I’d breathe some new life into it with new photos and easier to follow instructions. So carrot juice…let’s do this!

Ingredients needed for this carrot juice
The key to making carrot juice that actually tastes good is in adding a few flavorful friends, like fruit and ginger!
- Carrots: Any carrot will work here – baby, shredded, whole…whatever you have!
- Mango: Fresh or frozen mango adds sweetness and a creamier texture to this juice.
- Pineapple: Fresh or frozen pineapple adds a touch of acidity to keep this juice from becoming overly sweet.
- Ginger: Fresh ginger is a great way to wake up your mornings and adds zing to this juice.
To peel or not to peel?
Do I need to peel the carrots before juicing? No! The carrot peel can be left to make carrot juice. Just be sure to clean the carrots well first by scrubbing under running water.
How to make carrot juice (without a juicer)
You won’t need a fancy juice machine for this easy carrot juice! You’ll basically just blend everything together until smooth. After blending you can go two routes:
Route 1: Strain – Pour the carrot juice mixture through a nut milk bag to remove the fibers and create a juice.
Route 2: Blend – Add a touch more water (or pineapple juice if you used canned pineapple) to create a juice-like texture. This method will keep the healthy fibers in the mixture, though it will have more of smoothie consistency (similar to this Carrot Ginger Smoothie).
Different carrot juice flavors
This carrot juice recipe is easily adapted to suit the flavors you like (or what you happen to have in your kitchen)! Try substituting the mango, pineapple, and/or ginger for strawberries, oranges, apple, turmeric, or cinnamon. If you try changing it up, I’d love to hear how it goes in the comments below!
What fruits are good to juice with carrots?
Carrots are a great base for juicing, as they are packed with nutrients and provide a sweet, earthy flavor. Here are some fruits that can be delicious to juice with carrots:
- Apples: Apples are a popular choice to add to carrot juice as they are also naturally sweet and provide a nice balance of flavors.
- Oranges: Oranges are a good source of vitamin C, and their tangy flavor can add a refreshing twist to carrot juice.
Pineapple: Pineapple is another great fruit to juice with carrots, as it provides a tropical flavor and contains enzymes that aid in digestion. - Lemons: Lemons are a good source of vitamin C and can help to balance out the sweetness of the carrots.
- Ginger: While not a fruit, ginger is a popular addition to carrot juice as it provides a spicy kick and also helps with digestion.
Is it okay to drink carrot juice everyday?
Experiment with different combinations to find the flavor profile that works best for you!
Carrot juice is generally safe to consume every day in moderation. However, it is important to note that carrot juice is high in natural sugars and consuming large amounts of it on a regular basis may lead to an increase in blood sugar levels.
Additionally, carrots are high in vitamin A, which is important for healthy vision and skin, but consuming too much vitamin A can be toxic. Therefore, it is recommended to consume carrot juice in moderation and to vary your intake of fruits and vegetables to avoid consuming too much of any one nutrient.

Michelle James says
Great idea! Love the option to just add additional liquid and blend, thus enabling you to keep the fiber. I do that with agua fresca, so it makes a lot of sense. Thank you!!
Sarah says
Thanks, Michelle! I love keeping in the fiber for the health of it, but I know for some people doing more of a juice cleanse they can end up with too much fiber. Wanted to give an option for both! 😀

Can’t wait to try this. How long will this last in the fridge if I make a large batch? This will be my first try at making my own carrot juice and it sounds like the best I’ve read. thanks
Kathy

Ferdous says
The carrot juice is yummy. Thanks for this healthy and delicious recipe.
Kelly Linard says
Should the carrots be cooked?
Sarah says
Nope, they don’t need to be! You can microwave them if your blender isn’t super strong / you want a smoother smoothie.
Lauren LeTendre says
How do you store this juice in the fridge for leftovers?
Sarah Bond says
Yes! 😀
Alan Voorhees says
It should be noted that you can NOT make this in a juicer, as mango and pineapple can’t be juiced. They can go in the blender just fine.
Maq says
Can i juice carrot with milk?
Sarah Bond says
You could add milk to this recipe!
ariana says
My husband and I are jumping on the juicer wagon, how many times a day can we drink this and for how long?
Sarah Bond says
It’s hard to say, really! I would aim to get in a few different types of juices per day rather than sticking to the same one. This will make sure you get a wider variety of vitamins 🙂 In the case of this juice, I wouldn’t do more than a few servings because it’s packed with Vitamin A, which you don’t want to overdo.
