Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 inches fresh ginger root, peeled and roughly chopped
  • Juice of half a fresh lemon
  • 1 tablespoon raw honey
  • Pinch of turmeric (optional)
  • A splash of filtered water (about 2-3 tablespoons)

Optional Variations

  • Pinch of cayenne pepper (for spicy boost)
  • Orange or grapefruit juice in place of lemon juice (for citrus fusion)
  • A handful of spinach or kale (for green twist)
  • Fresh grated horseradish (for detox power)
  • Maple syrup or agave nectar instead of honey (for vegan variation)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Peel about 2 inches of fresh ginger root and roughly chop it to make blending easier. Squeeze fresh lemon juice from half a lemon and measure out a tablespoon of raw honey.
  2. Blend Ingredients: Place the chopped ginger, lemon juice, honey, and a splash of filtered water in a high-speed blender. Add turmeric if using. Blend for about 30 seconds until smooth and slightly frothy.
  3. Strain the Mixture: Pour the blended liquid through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a small bowl to remove fibrous bits, resulting in a smooth, concentrated shot.
  4. Serve Fresh: Pour the strained ginger shot into small glasses or shot-sized bottles. Enjoy immediately for maximum potency, or refrigerate for later.

Notes

  • Use Fresh Ginger: Always use fresh ginger instead of powders for brighter flavor and health benefits.
  • Don’t Skip Straining: Straining removes pulp and makes the shot smoother and easier to drink quickly.
  • Adjust Sweetness: Modify the amount of honey to balance the heat to your liking.
  • Start Small: Beginners should start with half a shot to get accustomed to the strong flavor.
  • Store Properly: Keep leftover shots in airtight containers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
