Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 inches fresh ginger root, washed, peeled and chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh turmeric root or 1 teaspoon turmeric powder, washed and chopped if fresh
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (about 2 lemons), seeds removed
  • 2 tablespoons raw honey (optional)
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to taste)
  • 1/2 cup filtered water

Optional Variations

  • Fresh mint leaves (a few leaves for mint infusion)
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar (for gut health)
  • Substitute 1/4 cup fresh orange juice for lemon juice
  • A pinch of black pepper (to enhance turmeric absorption)
  • Omit honey for a sweetener-free, low-sugar version

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Wash fresh ginger root and turmeric thoroughly. Peel and chop them into smaller pieces to facilitate smoother blending.
  2. Juice the Lemons: Freshly squeeze the lemons to extract the juice, making sure to remove any seeds for a cleaner taste.
  3. Blend the Base: In a high-speed blender, combine chopped ginger, turmeric, lemon juice, raw honey, cayenne pepper, and filtered water. Blend until the mixture is smooth and well incorporated.
  4. Strain the Mixture: Pour the blended liquid through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a bowl to remove pulp, resulting in a smooth, easy-to-drink shot.
  5. Portion and Store: Divide the wellness shots into small glass bottles or jars for convenient daily use. Store in the refrigerator and shake well before each serving.

Notes

  • Use fresh ingredients to maximize flavor and nutrient content.
