I fermented carrot juice!

I just want to share this recipe with you guys for lacto-fermented ginger carrot juice. I don't have a juicer but if you do then use it by all means. I took a couple handfuls of baby carrots and put them in the blender with some water and a piece of ginger. Squeezed the pulp out through a cheesecloth. Added 1/2 tsp salt and 2 tbsp whey (from straining kefir). Let sit for 2 days and 1 night. It was very sour and fizzy, like a liquid version of the NT ginger carrot recipe. I did need to strain it as it was apparently not thoroughly blended and I had to shake periodically because the pulp settled. Still, it was good!

I was inspired by your idea...so I made up a batch of my own. And my kids love it. One batch I used half carrot and half pear...very yummy, The second batch, I made with two quarts of carrot juice and my reg kefir milk mix....powdered soy and coconut milk....reallly nice!! Kids said it was like a smoothie!!!

Thanks for the inspiration!!!
