Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 oranges I used medium navel oranges
- 1 lemon
- 3 inch fresh ginger root
- 1 teaspoon turmeric powder or 2-inch fresh root
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
Instructions
- Peel and cut the citrus into quarters, and add all the ingredients to a high-speed blender and blend till fully incorporated.
- Next, place a fine mesh sieve on top of a measuring jug or bowl and strain the mixture to filter out the pulp. You can also use a cheesecloth or a nut milk bag to squeeze every last drop. Pour into an ice cube tray and freeze for up to 3 hours or till frozen.
- Once ready to use, put one cube into a mug and pour hot water on top. You can optionally add some honey. The immunity tea is ready to drink!

Notes
- Feel free to use any orange. Just make sure they are medium-sized, about the size of a tennis ball, to ensure the right proportions.
- I used turmeric powder, but you can use the fresh root.
- These are perfect for meal prep, so once they are frozen, transfer them to a zip-top bag and store in the freezer for easy access.
- Note that if you opt not to strain these before freezing, there will be about 12 cubes.
