Suitable For: When you feel that scratchy throat coming on, prepping for flu season, hustling professionals who need a vitamin C kick, post-gym recovery, or battling those annoying seasonal allergies.
Health Benefits: This powerhouse packs 300% of your daily vitamin C for serious immune-boosting action. The anti-inflammatory ginger helps with achy joints, plus you get natural electrolytes for hydration. Bonus: it helps pump out collagen and might even help keep your blood pressure in check.
- Big oranges – 2 (400g)
- Grapefruit – 1 (350g)
- Fresh ginger – 1 thumb-sized piece (15g)
- Lemon – ½ (30g)
- Give all your citrus a good wash, then peel everything completely.
- Chop that ginger into smaller bits so your slow masticating juicer can handle it.
- Run everything through your cold-press juicer.
- Give it a quick stir and pour over ice.
- Drink it within 30 minutes while all those vitamins are still fresh!
- Not a fan of grapefruit's bite? Swap it for 2 carrots - you'll get beta-carotene and way less tartness.
- Toss in ¼ tsp turmeric for extra anti-inflammatory power.
First thing in the morning on an empty stomach (your body absorbs it better) or within 30 minutes post-workout.
