Raw Recipes: Fresh Turmeric Juice
~ by Ruth Hofer
A super yummy Ayurvedic drink to help your liver, support immune system and is great for keeping a singer’s throat soothed. I first tried this drink at Indus restaurant in Bali, and it blew my mind!!! As soon as we came home I recreated it in my kitchen…
Ingredients:
– 5 pieces of fresh turmeric root, washed
– 1 lemon
– warm water
– 2 tablespoon honey
– cold water
Preparation:
Put the turmeric root, and the the lemon through your juicer, you can put the pulp back a second and maybe even a third time to get all the goodness out.
Leave the juicer running and pour about 1/2 cup warm water through.
Mix in the honey. If you don’t want to use honey, either swap the lemon for an orange or use a different sweetener (it wont be as medicinal, but it will be sweeter…)
Top up with 1-2 cups cold water and store in fridge (keeps for a few days).
Serve over ice in short glasses. Turmeric also goes really well with freshly juiced pineapple and gives you a nice natural buzzy feeling….Enjoy!
