PREP INGREDIENTS: Wash and prepare your fresh pineapple, ginger, horseradish, turmeric, garlic, and lime.
BLEND: Put all the ingredients into a blender. Blend on high for 45-60 seconds, or until everything is smooth. If your blender isn’t very strong, it might take a little longer, or work in batches.
STRAIN: Pour the mixture through a fine strainer into a bowl or measuring cup. Use the back of a spoon to press and stir the leftover pulp so you get all the liquid out. Throw away the leftover pulp or repurpose as desired.
TASTE AND ADJUST: You should now have a smooth orange tonic. Give it a taste! Add honey if you want it sweeter, turmeric powder for a stronger flavor, or cayenne if you like it spicier.
ENJOY: Take a shot as needed to ward off a cold. Drink a small shot before meals to help with digestion, or get creative! Add it to salad dressings, marinades, cocktails, or mix it with sparkling water for a fun drink.
STORE SAFELY: Keep your tonic in a glass jar or bottle in the fridge. It will last for 4-6 weeks. Shake it well before using it because it’s normal for it to separate.
