Ingredients
- 1/4 cup fresh ginger, chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh turmeric root, chopped
- 2 lemons, peeled and chopped
- 2 oranges, peeled and chopped
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cups water
Instructions
- Blend Ingredients: Add the fresh ginger, turmeric root, peeled lemons, peeled oranges, black pepper, and water to a blender. Blend on high for 1-2 minutes until the mixture is smooth and pulpy.
- Strain the Juice: Place a fine mesh strainer over a bowl or pitcher. Pour the blended liquid through the strainer, using a spoon to stir and press the pulp to extract as much juice as possible, separating the pulp from the juice.
- Discard Pulp and Store: Discard the remaining pulp in the strainer. Transfer the strained juice into an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks to maintain freshness and potency.
- Serve as Shots: When ready to consume, shake the container well, pour 2 ounces of the juice into a glass, and drink quickly like a shot to enjoy the full health benefits.
Notes
- Adjust the amount of black pepper to taste; it enhances the absorption of turmeric’s beneficial compounds.
- Use organic ginger and turmeric when possible for the best flavor and health benefits.
- Consume within 2 weeks for optimal freshness and potency.
- You can add a teaspoon of honey for a touch of sweetness if desired, but it will change the nutritional values.
- This shot is potent; start with smaller amounts if you are new to turmeric or ginger extracts.
