Swaps, storage and make-ahead
Swaps
- Swap the oranges for 1 large apple, cored and chopped, for a sweeter, less tangy juice.
- Use lime juice instead of lemon juice for a slightly sharper, more fragrant finish.
- Replace the fresh ginger with a small pinch of ground ginger if you don't have fresh on hand, adding a little at a time to taste.
- Skip straining and blend with a little extra water for a thicker smoothie-style drink that keeps all the pulp.
Storage
Fresh juice is best drunk straight away; otherwise refrigerate it in a sealed jar within 2 hours and drink within 24 hours, shaking before serving. Freezing is not recommended, as the flavour and texture suffer once thawed.
Make ahead
Scrub and chop the carrots, segment the oranges and slice the ginger up to a day ahead, then store them in a sealed container in the fridge ready to blend.
