Recipe type: Juice
Serves: 15 ounces
Ingredients
  • ~7 oz turmeric root (large handful)
  • 3-4 lemons, rind removed
  • ~6 oz ginger root (one large root), roughly chopped
  • 1 sweet apple, quartered
  • Pinch black pepper
Instructions
  1. Run all ingredients through a juicer, or blend in a blender and pour through a cloth-lined sieve to strain out pulp.
  2. Pour juice into individual bottles, one large jar, or an ice cube tray to store.
  3. To serve, pour about 2 ounces into a glass and add a small pinch of black pepper. Drink like a shot and chase with water.
Notes
These shots are best when taken on an empty stomach in the morning.

Store juice in the fridge up to 4 days.

I recommend taking these shots every other day, unless you feel like you're fighting off a cold, in which case every day would be appropriate.
