Winter ills and chills be gone, with this zingy Immunity tonic recipe. This little elixir sure packs a punch, as it's loaded with Vitamin C and ginger to give your immune system a kick.

The concentrated dose of ingredients which have natural cold-fighting properties will brighten up your winter mornings, and can be taken whether you're feeling under the weather or just want to give your health a boost.

INGREDIENTS:

2 large navel oranges
1 lemon
150g ginger
30g turmeric or 1 Tbsp turmeric powder
½ tsp black pepper
Water

_{OTHER OPTIONS:}

Carrots
Beetroot
Mandarins or tangelos
Apples
Celery
Spinach
Cucumber

INSTRUCTIONS:

Wash the skins of oranges, lemons, or any other fruit you're using. You'll use peels and all!
Chop the oranges, lemons, ginger, and turmeric into smaller pieces.
Add to a blender and pour in enough water to just cover them. Blend until smooth.
Place a sieve over a bowl & pour the liquid through the sieve to strain out the pulp. Use a spoon to press down on the pulp to extract the juice. Transfer the pulp to a muslin cloth & squeeze out all the extra juice. Reserve the pulp to add a spoonful or two to your stir-fries for extra flavour.
Store the wellness shots in an airtight bottle or jar in the fridge.
