Also known as the “Bunny Smoothie” back in our Kindfood days. We always make our own fresh carrot and ginger juice – it’s so easy. Commercially prepared juices are pasteurized, which causes so much nutrient loss. With the cinnamon and banana, this smoothie tastes like that classic dessert we can’t resist!
Active time: 5 minutes
Total time: 5 minute
2 large carrots, peeled
1-inch piece of ginger
1 cup almond milk

- In a juicing machine, juice the carrots and the ginger just before you make the smoothie.
- In a heavy-duty blender on high speed, blend 2/3 cup of the carrot/ginger juice with the milk, avocado, banana chunks, coconut and cinnamon until smooth.
- Serve immediately.

Pasteurization involves heating to kill any harmful bacteria. Unfortunately, the process also kills healthy nutrients. It’s been over a decade since we have had pasteurized juices. We ensure that our fruits and veggies are thoroughly cleaned before we juice them. There’s power in whole food, as close to its original state as possible. Even the organic varieties of juice are not worth buying, in our opinion, because pasteurization takes away the ‘living’ properties of the juices.
