🥛✨ Carrot Milk Recipe (Serves 2)
You’ll need:
- 2 medium carrots (peeled & chopped)
- 2 cups milk (dairy or plant-based)
- ¼ tsp turmeric (optional, for anti-inflammatory kick)
- Sweetener: 1 tsp honey or dates (optional)
Steps:
- Blend carrots with ½ cup milk until smooth.
- Heat remaining milk (don’t boil!), then mix with blended carrot puree.
- Add turmeric/honey, stir well. Drink warm or chilled!
Pro Tip: For a luxury latte version, froth the milk and sprinkle cinnamon on top!
💪 Why This Combo Rocks
- Immunity: Carrots (vitamin A) + milk (zinc) = cold-fighting duo.
- Digestion: Warm milk soothes gut; carrots add fiber.
- Skin Glow: Beta-carotene + dairy fats = natural “moisturizer” from within.
Bonus Uses:
- Baby food: Strain for a gentle weaning recipe.
- Post-workout recovery: Adds potassium + protein.
⚠️ Notes
✔ Use organic carrots (you’re drinking the peel’s nutrients!).
✔ Vegan? Swap milk for coconut milk + a pinch of sea salt.
❌ Avoid if allergic to dairy (try almond milk instead).
