Detox Cooler Recipes. These detox coolers are designed to refresh, replenish, and help digestion. Not to mention, they taste great too.
Ginger Tamarind Cooler
A good choice before meals – ginger and apple soothe digestion, while tamarind stimulates a sluggish bowel.
500g Green Apple
40g Ginger
300ml Coconut water
10ml Tahini paste
30g Tamarind, dried
30ml Water
Soak the dried tamarind in the water for a few minutes. Once the tamarind is softened, squeeze it with your fingers to separate the flesh from the stone, and then strain through a fine sieve, reserving the liquid. Use a juicer to extract the juice from the green apples and ginger.
Pour the extracted juices into a blender, add the tamarind liquid and all other ingredients. Add a few ice cubes and blend on medium speed for about 30 seconds.
