Anti-Inflammatory Orange Turmeric Juice
Ingredients
2 Large Oranges: Peeled and seeds removed.
1 tbsp Turmeric Powder: The star anti-inflammatory ingredient.
1-inch Ginger Root: Peeled (fresh ginger adds a nice zing).
1/4 tsp Black Pepper: Essential for turmeric absorption.
1 tbsp Honey: To balance the earthiness with a touch of sweetness.
Optional: 1/2 cup of water or coconut water if you prefer a thinner consistency.
Instructions
Prep the Produce: Peel the oranges and the ginger root. If you are using a blender rather than a juicer, roughly chop the ginger into smaller pieces to ensure it blends smoothly.
Combine: Place the oranges, ginger, turmeric powder, black pepper, and honey into a high-speed blender.
Blend: Process on high until the mixture is completely smooth. If it feels too thick, add a small splash of water and blend again.
Strain (Optional): If you prefer a clear juice rather than a “smoothie” style, pour the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer or nut milk bag into a glass.
Serve: Pour over ice and enjoy immediately for the freshest flavor.
Pro-Tip
Turmeric can stain countertops and plastic blender jars easily. It’s a good idea to rinse your equipment with warm, soapy water immediately after making this!
