Ingredients

  • 2 lemonsJuice of
  • ¼ cupwater
  • 1 tbspolive oil (optional) (see below)
  • 2 navel orangespeeled
  • ¼ cupfresh ginger (washed and chopped)
  • 1 tspfresh turmeric (or ¼ tsp dried)
  • ⅛ tspblack pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a high powered blender, add lemon juice, water, olive oil. Add peeled oranges, chopped ginger, turmeric and black pepper. Blend until smooth.

  2. 2

    Through a mesh strainer or cheesecloth placed over a large bowl pour ginger mixture to remove any lumps. If using cheesecloth, gently squeeze the liquid through the cloth so all that is remaining is the pulp (I recommend doing this in batches to avoid overloading the cloth).

  3. 3

    Pour the thin liquid into individual 2 oz glass jars or in one 12 oz mason jar and store in the fridge.
