Ingredients Needed

• Carrot juice —If possible and you have time, make your carrot juice at home using a juicer for a pure and vibrant taste. Alternatively, choose high-quality store-bought carrot juice without added sugars or preservatives.
• Vodka
• Fresh lemon juice or lime juice
• Simple syrup
• Ginger — ​​​​​​​Peel and slice the ginger into quarter-sized pieces to allow for easy muddling or infusion. Adjust the ginger quantity based on your spice preference.
• Egg white
• Tiny rainbow carrots —Optional for garnish.We found the petite carrots online atGourmet Sweet Botanicals. Sometimes they are also available at thefarmer’s market in the spring. Or opt for rainbow baby carrots.
• Edible flowers—Optional for garnish

How to Make a Carrot co*cktail

1 — In a co*cktail shaker, add the sliced ginger. Muddle the ginger to release its flavors. If you prefer a stronger ginger kick, muddle a bit more.

2 — To the shaker (without ice), add the carrot juice, vodka, lemon juice, simple syrup and egg white. Dry shake vigorously for about 30 seconds.

3 — Add ice to the shaker and shake again for another 15-20 seconds. This chills the co*cktail and further incorporates the flavors.

4 — Strain the co*cktail into a chilled glass using a fine mesh strainer to ensure a smooth texture. Discard any small ginger or ice particles.

5 — Optional: Garnish with mini-carrots and/or edible flowers.

Recipe Notes and Tips

• Dry shake with egg white:When adding the egg white, dry shake the ingredients first (shake without ice) to create a rich foam. Then, shake with ice to chill the co*cktail.
• Experiment with vodka varieties:Try different varieties of vodka to find one that complements the ginger and carrot flavors. Some may prefer a clean and neutral vodka, while others may enjoy a hint of botanicals. Bourbon is also another popular option when it comes to carrot drinks, especially if you want a carrot whiskey co*cktail.
• Play with spices:Feel free to experiment with additional spices, such as a dash of ground cinnamon or a twist of black pepper, to add complexity to the co*cktail.
