How to Make Carrot Pineapple Cucumber Juice
It is super easy to make fruit & veggie juice at home. There are really two ways you can make this juice.
Method 1:
Prepare all the fruits and veggies. Wash and cut them all into smaller pieces. For the pineapple, cut the top and rind off. Then cut the pineapple down and around the core. Then cut into strips. Add all the ingredients to a juicer in small batches. Stir, chill, and serve!
Method 2:
If you don’t have a juicer, you can use this method instead. Prepare all the fruits and veggies the same way, but instead of putting them in the juicer, put them in the blender. Blend them all up and then strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove the pulp.
Recipe Tips & Adjustments
The awesome thing about juice is you can customize it SO many different ways! You can add more fruit and veggies depending on what you have in your fridge—or you can just add in little flavorings!
Other fruits and veggies to add/substitute
- Sub apples for oranges if you don’t have any
- Add papaya for an extra tropical twist
- Add celery, spinach, or kale if you want extra nutrients
Flavorings to add:
- Add lemon or lime for a zing, plus extra citrus
- Add ginger for a little spice (plus it is super good for you!)
Some other common combinations I’ve seen for juice include pineapple cucumber juice (by itself) carrot pineapple ginger juice, pineapple carrot apple juice, or kale carrot pineapple juice.
See what I mean when I say there are TONS of ways to customize your juice?! 🙂
What are the benefits of carrot and pineapple juice?
The benefits of carrot and pineapple juice have to do with the nutrients they each provide. Carrots are high in beta carotene, which converts into vitamin A in the body. Pineapple are high in vitamin C.
And then there are cucumbers too, which have quite a few nutrients, like vitamin K, B, and C!
Should I peel carrots or cucumbers for juice?
There is no need to peel the carrots or the cucumber for this juice! Leaving the skin on gives you even more nutrients. You won’t see the skin at all, so it doesn’t matter!
