These immunity bombs were born out of sheer necessity. Every time I share my Lemon Ginger Elixir recipe, there are always a handful of people who want to avoid honey. Although honey is rich with anti bacterial and anti inflammatory properties, I do get why many want to skip it. With the option to add honey later, these cubes will make both camps happy. So let’s make them!
THE INGREDIENTS
HERE’S HOW TO MAKE AND USE THE IMMUNITY BOMBS
Peel the oranges and optionally the lemon as well. And then simply blend all the ingredients together till fully incorporated. Next pour the mixture into an ice cube tray and freeze for up to 3 hours or till frozen. My ice cube tray measures about 2 teaspoons per cube.
Once ready to use, put on top of a strainer on a mug and pour boiling water over it. The bomb will melt and you can strain away the fiber. The immunity tea is ready to drink!
