Turmeric & Lime Gingerade Tonic
Ingredients
2 limes, flesh only, no white pith (approx. 120g)
100g honey to taste
60g piece of fresh ginger, grated
30g fresh turmeric, peeled
1-2 pinches cayenne pepper
1-2 pinches black pepper
1110g water
Preparation
1 Place lime, honey, ginger, black & cayenne pepper and turmeric into a blender for 2 min / speed 10 (highest speed of your appliance) (we have a Thermomix for this, however, any industrial type blender should do the trick)
2 Add water and blend 1 min / speed 10 (highest speed of your appliance)
3 Use sieve or nut bag to strain liquid into a glass container if not consuming immediately.
Serve hot as a cup of tea with a fresh squeeze of lime or lemon; alternatively consume by the spoon full as a straight tonic. Refrigerate in an airtight glass container.
