PREPARATION
These steps are followed for the preparation of the Citrus Ginger And Turmeric Immunity Shot:
- Prepare The Ingredients: Peel the orange carefully, removing as much of the white pith as possible. Grate the ginger finely and measure the lemon juice, turmeric and water so everything is ready for blending.
- Add To Blender: Place the peeled orange segments into the blender. Add the lemon juice, grated ginger, turmeric powder and water to complete the mixture.
- Blend Until Smooth: Blend on high speed for about 30 seconds until the orange is fully broken down and all ingredients are evenly combined into a smooth liquid.
- Strain If Desired: For a pulp-free finish, strain the blended mixture through a fine-mesh sieve. This optional step creates a clearer, smoother immunity shot.
- Serve Immediately: Pour into a small glass and drink fresh to enjoy the zesty flavour and maximum nutrient content.
