Description

Ingredients

• 6-7 cups fresh apple juice (either freshly juiced apples like gala - about 12-14 apples, or fresh apple cider with no sugar added)
• 1-3 tablespoons fresh turmeric root, no need to peel ( start conservative, taste, add more to taste)
• ⅛ cup - ¼ cup, unpeeled ginger root
• ¾ cup fresh lemon juice, more to taste ( about 3-4 large lemons)

Directions

• Using a juicer, juice the apples and place in a large 2 quart mason jar or large pitcher. Alternatively you can use fresh apple cider ( with no sugar added).
• Juice the turmeric root, starting off conservatively, then juice ginger and lemons ( peel the lemons with a pairing knife and put in the juicer.)
• Stir this with the apple juice. Taste. Adjust. It should tasted balanced, sweet and tart, with the heat of ginger in the background ( add more if you want) and a hint of exotic turmeric ( add more to taste).
• Note: if adding little slices of turmeric through the juicer, its ok to pour a little splash of water ( or the apple juice) through the juicer, to get the turmeric to come out.
• Keep in the fridge and serve over ice for a refreshing summer drink, or top off with sparkling water.
• You can also make cocktails out of this, but I didnt say that. 😉
