Scale
Produce
- 1/4 cup fresh ginger, chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh turmeric root, chopped
- 2 lemons, peeled and chopped
- 2 oranges, peeled and chopped
Other
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cups water
Instructions
- Blend Ingredients: Add the chopped ginger, turmeric root, peeled lemons, peeled oranges, black pepper, and water to a blender. Blend on high speed for 1-2 minutes until the mixture is well combined and smooth.
- Strain the Juice: Place a fine mesh strainer over a bowl or pitcher. Pour the blended liquid through the strainer and use a spoon to stir and press the pulp, separating the juice from the fibrous solids.
- Discard Pulp and Store Juice: Discard the pulp caught in the strainer. Transfer the strained juice into an airtight container and store it in the refrigerator. It will keep fresh for up to 2 weeks.
- Serve as a Shot: When ready to consume, pour 2 ounces of the juice into a glass and drink it quickly, similar to taking a shot, to maximize the immune-boosting benefits.
Notes
- Use fresh ginger and turmeric root for the best flavor and nutritional benefits.
- Black pepper enhances the absorption of turmeric’s active compound, curcumin.
- Store the immunity shots refrigerated in an airtight container to maintain freshness up to 2 weeks.
- You can adjust the amount of water to make the shot more or less concentrated according to taste preferences.
- If fresh turmeric root is unavailable, turmeric powder can be used as a substitute, though fresh is preferred.
