My son brought carrots with leaves and gave me this idea of using carrot leaves. I first did my check to make sure the carrot leaves are edible. Surprisingly, the carrot leaves are rich in vitamin K along with other minerals! I tasted the raw leaves and they were slightly bitter and mildly sour. Felt this would be a great replacement for parsley leaves. This drink tasted good enough to me.
Juice all the ingredients.
