![]() Here is the recipe for those who’d like to make it at home: 1 3-to-4 inch piece of unpeeled fresh ginger root 4 to 6 lemons 1 cup purified water ¾ cup raw organic honey ¼ tsp black pepper Cut the ginger into ½-inch pieces. Using a powerful juicer, push the ginger through the juicer and juice enough to make 1 cup. In a citrus juicer, juice the lemons to make 1 cup of juice. Combine the juices in a large bowl. With a wire whisk, mix the water, honey and black pepper into the ginger and lemon juice. Whisk until blended. Store in a pitcher or glass jar in the refrigerator. Don't chug the whole thing -- just one ounce is recommended. And a word to the wise: It definitely has a kick. |
