Ingredients

4 cloves garlic
2 lemons
2 oranges
2 inch fresh ginger chopped
2 inch fresh turmeric chopped, or 2 tsp ground
1/4 cup honey preferably raw
1/4 cup coconut water or water
2 tbsp apple cider vinegar raw, with the mother
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp cayenne
1/8 tsp ground black pepper

Instructions

Smash the garlic cloves with the side of a knife, then add to a blender. Let this sit for 10 minutes to oxidize.
Squeeze the juice from the lemons and add to the blender.
Peel the oranges and add the orange slices to the blender.
Add the rest of the ingredients to the blender, and blend until the mixture is smooth.
Strain the liquid through a fine mesh strainer, and use the back of a spoon to press on the solids left behind on the strainer to squeeze out all the juices.
Enjoy a shot immediately, or freeze in ice cube trays (I like these) until ready to consume.

Notes

Expert Tips

The serving size is one shot: about 3 tablespoons. It's best taken fresh right after making for full health benefits.
For kids, you can give half a serving and dilute it with water and more honey to make it more palatable.

Serving Tips

Defrost a serving at room temperature, or poor warm water on the frozen cubes to defrost quickly. I don't recommend using boiling water as high temperature may reduce the health benefits in the immunity shot. Take a few times a week for best results. If you feel a cold coming on, I recommend taking them every day for 4-5 days.

Storage Tips

To keep the nutrients at their full potential, you can freeze any leftovers of this immunity shot recipe in ice cube trays. I personally like to use these silicon cookie trays.

I defrost 2 circular blocks at a time, which is about 3 tbsp. For best results, I recommend defrosting your needed servings an hour before and taking first thing in the morning.
