🍹 How to Make the Beet, Ginger, and Watermelon Elixir
Ready to start your 15-day kidney cleanse? This simple recipe is quick to prepare, budget-friendly, and bursting with flavor. Here’s everything you need to create this powerful drink at home.
Ingredients
- 2 medium beets, peeled and chopped (organic for maximum benefits)
- 1-inch piece of fresh ginger, peeled and grated
- 2 cups fresh watermelon, cubed and seedless
- 1 liter (4 cups) of filtered water
- Juice of 1 lemon (optional, for a zesty kick)
- Honey (optional, for a touch of sweetness)
Instructions
- Prepare the Ingredients: Wash and peel the beets, then chop them into small chunks. Grate the ginger and cube the watermelon, removing any seeds.
- Blend the Base: In a blender, combine the beets, ginger, and watermelon with 1 cup of water. Blend until smooth, creating a vibrant, nutrient-rich puree.
- Simmer for Extraction: Pour the puree into a pot with the remaining water. Bring to a gentle simmer over low heat for 10 minutes to release the active compounds.
- Strain the Elixir: Use a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth to separate the liquid from the pulp, collecting the smooth, colorful elixir in a jug.
- Add a Zesty Twist: Stir in fresh lemon juice for extra flavor and vitamin C, if desired. Add a teaspoon of honey for sweetness, if needed.
- Chill and Serve: Let the elixir cool, then refrigerate. Serve chilled or over ice for a refreshing, detoxifying drink.
Pro Tip
Make a batch every few days and store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 72 hours. Shake well before serving to ensure the nutrients are evenly distributed.
