Author Notes: Trying to create healthier recipes this week I am starting with a savory carrot milkshake. The big decision is what herbal flavor to choose with this to complement the raw carrots best. I have listed some good options. - Sagegreen

Serves 2

1 cup organic finely grated raw carrots
1 teaspoon grated peeled ginger
1/2 teaspoon Meyer lemon zest
a very tiny pinch of Maldon salt flakes, optional
1/2 teaspoon minced dill, lemon verbena, thai basil or fennel fronds, to your taste preference
2 cups unsweetened almond milk or cultured buttermilk (or half of each)
2-3 crushed ice cubes, optional for well chilled shake

Put your finely grated raw carrots, ginger, zest, optional salt, herb, and milk in a blender.Add crushed ice.
Process until smooth.
Pour into 2 glasses.
