Ingredients

• 6 medium Carrots
• 4 cups Water
• 1 cup Condensed milk
• 1 cup Evaporated milk
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons Sugar (optional, to taste)
• 1 cup Ice

Directions

Step 1

Peel the carrots and chop them into small chunks for easier blending.

Step 2

Bring 4 cups of water to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the chopped carrots and cook for 10 minutes or until the carrots are soft and tender. Allow to cool for a few minutes.

Step 3

Once the carrots have cooled slightly, transfer them along with the cooking water to a blender. Blend until you achieve a smooth and creamy consistency. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth to remove any pulp, if desired.

Step 4

Pour the strained carrot juice back into the blender. Add the condensed milk, evaporated milk, vanilla extract, ground nutmeg, and ground cinnamon. Blend again until all the ingredients are well incorporated.

Step 5

Taste the mixture. If you prefer a sweeter punch, add sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, blending again each time, until you reach your desired sweetness.

Step 6

Add the ice to the blender and blend until the mixture is chilled and slightly frothy.

Step 7

Pour the carrot punch into glasses, garnish with a sprinkle of nutmeg or cinnamon if desired, and serve immediately.
