- 3-4 fresh apricots (or dried if out of season)
- 2 tablespoons of honey
- 1 liter of water
Instructions:
- Prepare the Apricots:
- If using fresh apricots, wash them thoroughly, cut them in half, and remove the pits. For a smoother texture and to maximize the health benefits, you can peel the apricots, though it’s not necessary.
- If using dried apricots, ensure they are unsulfured and soak them overnight in water to soften.
- Blend the Ingredients:
- Place the apricot halves (or soaked dried apricots) into a blender. Add the honey and a splash of water to help blend everything smoothly.
- Blend until the mixture is completely smooth.
- Mix and Chill:
- Transfer the apricot blend into a large pitcher. Add the remaining water and stir well to combine everything into a uniform drink.
- Refrigerate until chilled. This enhances the flavors and makes the drink more refreshing.
- Serve:
- Give the pitcher a good stir as the apricot puree may settle at the bottom. Pour the drink over ice if preferred, and enjoy a refreshing start to your day.
