Immune Boosting Orange Juice

 


Sometimes you just need a vibrant way to start off your day while also boosting your immune system. Especially during flu season!

Living in a home with multiple people who are exposed to totally different environments everyday- I personally find that it helps to have a few staple things at the ready to strengthen us from the inside out. I love drinking lemon water every morning (Also drinking lots of water in general, stay hydrated always, not just during flu season!) and keeping a stash of oregano oil capsules on hand. If I’m feeling weird I’ll often snag a ginger shot while out doing groceries for clients and make sure to eat in a way that further helps my body feel good. But there’s also this sweet yet spicy elixir that’s super easy to make (you don’t need a juicer! Just a blender) and stays fresh for about a week. ⁣

Author: Consciously Coastal
prep time: 10 | Servings: 6-8

Ingredients

  • 32 oz orange juice
  • 2-3 inches ginger root, peeled & chopped⁣
  • 4 tbs local honey, can also use manuka ⁣>* 2 tbs cinnamon ⁣
  • Pinch of Himalayan salt ⁣

Instructions:

  1. Pour orange juice and prepped ginger into a high speed blender and blend in high until smooth. The amount of ginger you use will determine the spicy kick of the juice so use what’s best for you!
  2. When mixture is ready, using a fine strainer, strain the elixir into a separate container so you don’t drink any ginger fuzz and quick rinse your blender out.
  3. Once juice is strained and blender is clean, pour juice back into the blender, adding the remaining ingredients and blend until fully combined. Now you have vitamin C loaded ginger shots ready at home!
