Method
 

Instructions
  1. Rinse the 2 whole oranges, 3 whole lemons, and 3.5 ounces ginger root under cold water to remove any dirt or residue.
  2. Peel the oranges and lemons, removing the outer rind and as much white pith as possible; remove any visible seeds. Break the peeled oranges into segments and cut the peeled lemons into quarters or chunks.
  3. Trim the ginger root ends, peel the ginger (use a spoon or peeler), and cut it into thin slices or small pieces so your blender can process it.
  4. Place the orange segments, lemon pieces, and ginger pieces into the blender. Add the ¼ cup honey.
  5. Blend on high until smooth and no large pieces remain, about 50–60 seconds. If needed, stop, scrape down the sides, and continue blending until smooth.
  6. Pour the blended mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a bowl or pitcher, using a spoon to press out as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids.
  7. Transfer the strained liquid into small glasses or bottles for serving; chill briefly if desired.
