Method

  1. Juice the lime, carrots, and pineapple using a juicer.

  2. Serve the freshly squeezed juice over ice.

  3. Cook's Notes:

  4. - Approximately 6 to 7 medium carrots, weighing around one pound, should be used. This will yield approximately 8 ounces of carrot juice.

  5. - For the pineapple, approximately one-third of a fresh pineapple, which is equivalent to about two cups, should be used. This will yield approximately 8 ounces of pineapple juice. Remember, there is no need to remove the core.

  6. - If you prefer a less tart taste, use only half of the lime. There is no need to peel it.
