@missmonicasmarket: Replying to @Shelvy Ray I left it out in the sun all day left out too long can cause bacteria. Here's an alternative suggestion for the fall/winter Sometimes we have to go back and revisit the things we used to do while learning new ways to take care of ourselves. Fresh ingredients, nourishing our bodies, and making healthier choices are all part of the process. This is about taking care of ourselves from the inside out, one day at a time. 💚 #detox #cleanse #heal #health #fyp Beetroot tonic infusion Ingredients 1 small beetroot, washed and thinly sliced 2–3 clean beet leaves Juice of ½ lemon ½ cup pineapple chunks (optional) A tiny pinch of cayenne 2 cups drinking water Instructions Wash the produce and place the sliced beetroot, beet leaves, and optional pineapple in a clean mason jar. Add the lemon juice, cayenne, and cold drinking water. Seal the jar and refrigerate for 2–4 hours, or overnight. Strain the liquid into a clean glass and drink it fresh. Keep refrigerated at 40°F or below, and use within 24–48 hours. Discard the leftover produce and any infusion that has been left out too long. What about making a tincture? My suggestion: Start with just a small pinch of cayenne. You can always adjust the flavor. Frequently asked questions How much should I drink? Start with 4 ounces (½ cup) to see how your stomach tolerates it. You don't need to drink large amounts or take it multiple times a day. How often can I drink it? One small serving a day is a reasonable starting point if you enjoy it and tolerate the ingredients. This is a fruit-and-vegetable drink, not a proven detox treatment. Your liver and kidneys naturally process waste from your body. Can I refrigerate it? Yes. Store it immediately in a clean, airtight glass jar or bottle in the refrigerator at 40°F or below. For the best quality, I'd make only enough for the day or the next day rather than keeping it for several days. Can I freeze it? Yes. Freeze individual portions in freezer-safe containers, leaving room for expansion. Thaw in the refrigerator and use promptly. Can I leave it sitting in the sun? I wouldn't recommend it. Even if your original video shows you preparing it in the Louisiana sunshine, sunlight is not a safe preservation method. Refrigerate perishable drinks within two hours, or within one hour when temperatures exceed 90°F. Should I seal the bottle? Yes. Use a clean, tightly sealed container. Do not assume that lemon juice or cayenne pepper preserves the drink or makes it safe to leave unrefrigerated.
