blender

Checked against the ingredient list for ten allergens: milk, egg, fish, crustaceans, tree nuts, peanuts, sesame, mustard, soy and gluten. Brands vary, so read the label on anything new to you.

Method

  1. Blend the turmeric, ginger and 80ml water to a slurry.
  2. Strain hard through a fine sieve or a muslin. Squeeze the pulp dry; most of the yield is in the last press.
  3. Stir in the lemon juice, black pepper and honey.
  4. Divide into two small glasses and drink.

Storage

Keeps three days in a sealed jar in the fridge. Shake before pouring; it separates.

Times, yields, allergens and nutrition are guidance. Use your own judgement on doneness and on storing. More in About.
