Ingredients
1½ cups fresh pineapple chunks
2 large oranges, peeled and segmented
1-inch piece of fresh ginger, peeled
1-inch piece of fresh turmeric (or 1 tsp ground turmeric)
Juice of ½ a lemon (optional, for added zing)
1 cup cold water (or coconut water for extra hydration)
Ice cubes (optional, for serving)
Directions
Prep your ingredients: Peel and cut the pineapple and oranges into chunks. Wash and peel the ginger and turmeric.
Blend: Add the pineapple, oranges, ginger, turmeric, lemon juice (if using), and water to a high-speed blender.
Strain (optional): For a smoother texture, strain the juice using a fine mesh sieve or nut milk bag.
Serve: Pour into a glass over ice, if desired. Give it a gentle stir and enjoy immediately.
Serving and Storage Tips
Serve chilled, ideally right after blending to get the most out of its nutrients.
If storing, refrigerate in an airtight glass bottle for up to 48 hours. Shake well before drinking, as the natural ingredients may settle.
This juice also makes a great base for smoothies or mocktails, especially with a splash of sparkling water.
