Directions

If you can find golden beets, by all means, use them in this recipe.

Place all vegetables in a large pot with water to cover.

Add remaining ingredients and mix thoroughly.

Simmer 2 to 2½ hours, until beets and carrots are tender.

Serve it as is or pureed smooth into a sweet, red broth. Either way, it’s packed with nutrients and completely refreshing. It makes a delightfully wholesome start to a larger dinner or for a light summer meal and delivers refreshing relief when the weather is hot and humid.
