How to Make Caribbean Carrot Punch

  1. Wash and peel 1 pound of carrots. Grate them using a box grater or pulse in a food processor until finely shredded.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the shredded carrots with 4 cups of water.
  3. Process the carrot mixture in a blender in two batches, until completely pureed.
  4. Line a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth over a large bowl. Pour the pureed carrot mixture into the sieve.
  5. Gently press the pulp with a spoon or spatula to extract as much juice as possible.
  6. For a smoother punch, repeat the straining process through a second sieve.
  7. Stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon of ground nutmeg.
  8. Add sweetened condensed milk to taste, starting with 1/2 a (14 ounce) can and adding more until desired sweetness is reached.
  9. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow flavors to meld and chill thoroughly.
  10. Serve chilled over ice. Garnish with a cinnamon stick or orange slice (optional).
