Jamaican carrot juice, or carrot punch as many people would call it, is a delicious and creamy spin on your typical carrot juice. It is commonly made with condensed milk, nutmeg, vanilla, carrots and water. Other variations may include Supligen or Nutrament for extra creaminess.

A lot of Jamaicans include alcohol in basically anything they get their hands on, and this drink is no exception. You will typically find it made with Dragon stout, Guinness stout or rum. You can also omit it for a kid friendly drink or if you are not a fan of alcohol.

This drink is perfect on its own or paired with some easter bun and cheese.

BENEFITS OF DRINKING CARROT JUICE

Carrot Juice is not only delicious, but it is also packed with an impressive nutritional content.

1. It is an excellent source of energy and can boost your metabolism.

2. It is loaded with vitamin A, which is vital for eye health.

3. It is high in antioxidants and vitamin C that protects your skin and boosts your immunity against radical damage.

4. It helps to improve blood sugar level.

5. It reduces heart disease, improves cognitive function, and aids in protecting the liver.

6. It improves your oral health.

There are many more benefits to drinking carrot juice, but like with anything, drink in moderation. Drinking too much carrot juice may turn your skin orange because of the high amount of beta carotene. Try to limit your daily in take to half a cup or 4oz a day.

Please keep in mind that the nutritional content is strictly for carrot juice in its natural state. The benefits may vary depending on what you pair it with when making it.

TIPS

Many people discard the pulp after making carrot juice, but there are other ways to minimize wastage.

You can freeze the leftover pulp for up to 3 months and use it to make carrot cake.

You can also boil the carrots until tender, cool them and blend with all your ingredients. No straining needed. If you still prefer a smoother mixture but don’t want the raw carrot taste, you can still boil the mixture and proceed with the rest of the preparation from the normal process.

HOW TO STORE IT

Jamaican carrot juice will last in the fridge for up to 7 days when stored in an airtight container.
