Prep Time 15 minutes
Total Time 15 minutes
Servings: 6 shots
Course: Drinks

Ingredients
  

  • 100 g fresh ginger scrubbed, sliced into thin coins
  • 2 oranges peeled, pips removed, cut into segments
  • 2 lemons peeled, pips removed

Equipment

  • Sana 727 or Sana 707 slow juicer, fine screen fitted
  • Chopping board and knife
  • Vegetable brush

Method
 

  1. Scrub the ginger under running water, trim any dry ends and slice it into coins 2 to 3 mm thick.
  2. Peel the oranges and lemons, cut them into pieces and remove the pips.
  3. Fit the fine screen. On the Sana 727, set the speed to 40 rpm. The Sana 707 runs at one low speed.
  4. Feed a few slices of ginger, then a piece of orange or lemon to push them through. Let each handful clear before adding the next.
  5. Finish with orange to carry the last of the ginger juice out of the drum.
  6. Stir, taste, and add a little water or more orange if it is too strong. Pour into small glasses and rinse the juicer straight away.

Notes

Makes about 250 to 300 ml. Keep leftovers in a sealed glass bottle in the fridge for a day or two, or freeze as ice cubes.
