Method

Prepare Ingredients:

Gather and measure all ingredients to ensure a smooth juicing process.

Clean Produce:

Wash all produce thoroughly under cold running water to remove any dirt or residue.

Peel & Prep:

Peel the orange and lemon. Cut the carrots, turmeric, ginger, ash gourd, lemon, and apples into chunks that fit easily into your juicer.

Juicing:

Feed the ingredients through your juicer, starting with the softer items (like orange and lemon) and finishing with firmer produce (like carrots and apples) for optimal juice extraction.

Chill (Optional):

For a cooler, more refreshing experience, chill the juice in the fridge for 10–15 minutes or serve immediately over ice.

Serve:

Pour into a glass, stir gently, and enjoy your vibrant, immune-boosting juice!

Notes

Blender-Friendly Variation:

Don’t have a juicer? No problem! You can still enjoy this juice using a blender. Simply add all the chopped ingredients with ½ to 1 cup of filtered water. Blend on high until smooth, then strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve, nut milk bag, or cheesecloth to remove the pulp. Pour into a glass and serve chilled.

Ash Gourd Substitute:

If ash gourd is unavailable, cucumber or celery are excellent alternatives. Both offer a refreshing, hydrating quality and are rich in nutrients. Cucumber has a mild, cooling flavor similar to ash gourd, while celery adds a slightly savory edge that pairs well with the other ingredients.
