CITRUS SEASON ELIXIR

My Citrus Season Elixir is an ode to one of my favourite times of year for produce -- January's bountiful citrus season! If you've been with me since last winter, you'll already know how obsessed I am with blood oranges, but this year, I'm absolutely crazy about all things citrus. This refreshing glass of liquid sunshine combines blood oranges, red grapefruit, lemons, carrots, apples and ginger to create a powerhouse elixir -- brimming with a mega dose of vitamins, antioxidants and anti aging ingredients. Enjoy my ultra refreshing Citrus Season Elixir to help replenish your body post workout, or anytime you need a colourful pick-me-up this winter!
Prep Time 10 minutes
Servings 1

Ingredients

  • 2 blood oranges
  • 1 large red grapefruit
  • 2 apples
  • 5 carrots
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger
  • 1 lemon

Instructions

  1. Start with chilled produce. Chop all ingredients into 1″ pieces.
  2. Add ingredients one at a time to your Hurom Slow Juicer (or similar), starting with an ingredient that isn’t as juicy (like ginger), and alternating with an ingredient that makes lots of juice (like carrots). This will ensure that the juicy ingredients flush the not-so-juicy ingredients through the juicer and you’ll get more of them in your cup!
  3. Once you’ve juiced all of your ingredients, stir the juice and pour into glasses.
  4. Totally optional (but fancy and fun!) — add a blood orange slice to adorn each glass, and enjoy!
