How to make a ginger drink (healthy drinks)
Hello, once again beautiful people and my esteemed viewers in the house. I can not forget to say Hi to my amazing subscribers. From where ever you are reading this post, I take it you're in good and sound health. I must remind you of the need to always take matters of your health seriously.
It is my second article on this platform and in the previous which was an introductory article, I made mention that we shall be seeing how to make ginger drinks. And in line with keeping to the promise, I will be showing you how you can make ginger drinks from the confines of your homes. If you are so interested then, let jump right in.
We have known ginger for a long time. Everyone knows ginger. However, if you're in doubt about how ginger looks like then look at this photo,
In the photo above, ginger is lying on the table, on the left-hand side of your screen. Yes, you get that now. Ginger is central to what we will be making today ( the ginger drink). Okay, before we begin you should get these items:
Ginger
Mortar and piston or any crusher
A sieve
Knife
A bowl of water
Flavor (juice flavor)
Extra bowls
A glass cup or any cup of choice
Are you ready? Let's begin! I'm going to be doing this in steps;
•Get some ginger. The quantity of juice to be extracted is according to the quantity and quality of the ginger.
•Now, put your ginger in a bowl of water to rinse off any mud or dirt.
Get yourself a comfortable chair because some serious work is about to begin. Now, gently scrape off the skin of the ginger. You know ginger usually have some twists and contour. So, take note and be sure to remove the skins around and between contours.
After peeling off every skin on each ginger, put them in a clean bowl and wash thoroughly.
Put them in the mortar or crusher and crush them until you can squeeze them with your hands.
Hold on, did you wash your hands before starting? Okay, wash it again now, then, pack out the crushed ginger into a clean bowl. If you are using a bowl or two then, you will have to be cleaning after each process before use for another process.
Your crushed ginger is in the bowl. Add a jar of water or glasses of water to the crushed ginger in the bowl.
We are about to begin the extraction. Okay, now, squeeze like a baby trying to collect the last drops of milk from his/her mama's breast.
Squeeze until nothing is coming out from the chaff anymore. Do you have a yellowish concentrate that tends to float then settle at the bottom of the bowl? Nice! You have just done a good job.
Get a clean stirrer and stir. Now, put a little to the tongue and taste it. Tell me, how does it taste? Hot? Yeah, that's how it should be but you can choose how you want it whether hot(pepperish), moderately, or less by varying the volume of water. I will advise that you should leave all addition of water until you are done. Just be adding controlled measures like a quarter glass during the squeezing stage.
Alright, we are almost done. Add your flavor to the concentrate or extracted ginger juice and stir thoroughly. Flavors have different tastes and colors so choose according to what you prefer.
Hey, taraaan! The Ginger drink is ready.
Hold on! Does it taste too strong and you don't like it that hard strong? You can simply add some more water to slacken the hardness.
What more! Put it in the refrigerator to get cool or you can start drinking it straight away. Serve in glasses to friends and family. You have just made them a drink that their hearts and body would say thank you to.
Thank you for reading until the end and you on the next post. Be sure to be on the lookout for what next we will be showing you.
Hello, lovely people I'm a new guy in the house!🎉
As it is customary in my African tradition, whenever we meet new people, elders of Africa have advised that they be treated with the utmost respect and dignity. Here I am today on a new social platform. And an opportunity to meet thousands of new people. To my friends on this platform whom I'm gonna sure have, subscribers, and sponsors who all would help me grow here, I greet you with the warmest of greetings and say thank you for viewing this post.
A friend had talked to me severally to bring my writing skills and educative post on read.cash to earn. Well, I thought it would be another platform like the many platforms where you burn your ass out, publishing content without being rewarded. Even though my friend has not cashed out from the platform since he started, I think it is worth trying after haven read a few posts concerning the site. But, what is most striking is, the many interesting posts I have taken time to read here. I mean, people have got incredible imagination and putting ideas that teach lots of lessons to writing leaves my mouth exclaiming like a siren running to attend to an emergency.
I have no doubt I'm so going to have fun while enjoying so many interesting reads. But, I'm not just going to read and enjoy other people's posts, I will definitely contribute to their enjoyment too by entertaining them with interesting and educative writings. Just to inform you beforehand, I'm bringing a whole lot to the table which will convince you to subscribe and like and even come back wanting for more. To tell you more, my posts will center especially on ways to make awesome, healthy drinks at home, using common items and ingredients. I know this might interest you. So, come with me on this journey.
You may ask what is so special about making your healthy drinks when there are countless drinks out there in the stores. Yes, you can simply walk into any store you can find a drink and pay to have one. It is quick and easy to get enjoyment from a drink bought in-store which caused you no stress while relieving you. But, here is the gist, so many manufacturers of these drinks you buy, keep to the regulations of the governments as it has to do with foods and drinks. The drinks are healthy given the context of those regulations. How about I tell you that you can have something healthier, richer with a natural taste and make with your own hands? Yes, made by your hands!
There is always something special about things made by us. We get sweet feelings inside that to come with a bit of pride nodding to what we achieved right in front of our eyes. The relief trumps that which we get on buying a chill drink from the store to gulp after a stressful day. Not only that, your hands are practically promoting healthy living and lifestyle of not just you but of course those around you too. That means it is not just about you healthwise but also about friends and family members.
I know you're going to pinch yourself on why you haven't thought of it in while. The Thought of using that item you see every day and use sometimes but not in the most creative ways as you should or maybe you are creative with them already but never knew there could be new ways to transform.
In my next article, I'll be showing you ginger healthy drinks and how to make them. We all must have known by now the health benefits ginger has and it is time to show you how we can use them to promote good health and live a healthy lifestyle.
I think we should create a community where we can collect more lessons and ideas about healthy drinks. What do you think?
Thanks for taking the time to read my post and I will encourage you to look out for the next post. We will be seeing ginger healthy drinks and how to prepare them.
