Method

  1. Peel and chop the ginger and turmeric and add to a high-speed blender with the apple juice and whizz for 2-4 mins until as smooth as possible.
  2. Strain through a sieve, using the back of a spoon to push through as much liquid as possible. Discard the leftover pulp. Fill 6 tall glasses with ice cubes and pour 50ml of the ginger and turmeric mix into each glass. Top each with the tonic water to serve.

Tip: A bold-flavoured tonic water such as Indian tonic water, with its distinctive clean, slightly bitter quinine flavour, would work well this drink, able to stand up to the strong flavours of ginger and turmeric.

Freezing and defrosting guidelines

Freeze the ginger turmeric mix only. In order to enjoy optimum flavour and quality, frozen items are best used within 3 months of their freezing date. For more tips on freezing and defrosting food, read our article Love Your Freezer.
