Equipment

  • cheesecloth or fine mesh strainer

Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh ginger peeled and chopped
  • 1/2 cup fresh turmeric peeled and chopped
  • 2-4 lemons, juiced
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp cayenne pepper optional
  • honey to taste you can start with 1/3 cup
  • 6-10 cups drinking water

Instructions

  • Blend ginger and turmeric with 2 to 4 cups of water. The more water you use before straining, the more flavor and nutrients you can extract from the ginger and turmeric.
  • Using a cheesecloth or a fine mesh strainer, strain blended mixture into a large bowl.
  • Add lemon juice, black pepper, cayenne, honey and about 3 to 4 cups of water. Stir and taste. You can add more lemon juice if you want it to be more tart, more cayenne or black pepper if you want more of a kick, more honey if you want it sweeter and more water if the mixture is too strong and you want to dilute it.
  • Continue to adjust as needed then when ready, pour into a pitcher and store in the refrigerator. You can enjoy this cold like juice or hot like tea. It will keep in the refrigerator for up to a week. Enjoy and stay healthy!
