Day 89: Persimmon Ginger Blood Orange Drink

Yield: 1 serving
Time (Start to Finish): 15 min

Ingredients:
4 blood oranges
½ persimmon
1 Tbsp fresh ginger
½ lemon
pinch salt

Directions:
1. Squeeze the oranges and the lemon into a food processor or a blender
2. Peel and chop the ginger and persimmon into small pieces and put in the blender too.
3. Add the pinch of salt and blend until smooth.
4. Pour into a glass and enjoy for a morning boost! You can also strain it if you like

Rating: 3.5 strawberries
Notes: First of all, this would be much better with a shot of vodka or some type of liquor. And also, its quite a bit gingery, so if you don’t like it so much, maybe add less. It was really a terrific way to start the day. Very refreshing. You can add ice to make a smoothie. This is pretty great, and id never really eaten persimmons before, they are great! Christina’s friend Mike brought them over from his grandmothers backyard. They were phenomenal. Enjoy guys!
