Title: Ginger & Vitamin C Boost Juice
Post by: quirkycooking on March 04, 2010, 11:04:09 am

Ginger & Vitamin C are great for fighting colds and flues - try this juice when you need a boost!

Whiz up in Thermomix for 1 1/2 minutes on speed 10:
- 300g fresh pineapple, cut into chunks
- 1 ruby red grapefruit, peeled, deseeded & quartered
- 2 kiwifruit, peeled and halved
- a good chunk of fresh ginger, about 2 cms
- 60g raw honey
- 300g ice cubes

Fill glasses two thirds full and top up with soda water, and stir.  Enjoy!

I might make this up for my DD - she keeps sniffing all the time and saying she has a cold. Thanks QC

Thanks Jo! Looks good. Might even give DD a boost who is still fighting a chest infection...

My two littlest ones found this a bit strong for them, so I did another with orange instead of grapefruit for them  - it's a bit milder.

Good one for winter, thanks Jo.  Hey, you look different in your avatar, what happened?

Thanks Jo (with the makeover) grapefruit is one of my favourite drinks (especially with campari ;)  )

Think I need this all year.

Ha ha!  Just thought it was time I put on a more recent photo - I was tired of the other one!  ;D

It was hard to find a red grapefruit, so used pink instead (still relatively hard to find, and was going to use an orange as a substitute). Very, very nice. thanks QC
