Lemon Ginger Turmeric Shot
A potent blend of fresh turmeric, ginger, and citrus that boosts immunity and fights inflammation.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 80 g fresh turmeric root
- 40 g fresh ginger root
- 1 unit lemon, peeled
- 2 unit oranges, peeled
- 200 mL filtered water
- 6 pinches ground black pepper
Instructions
Preparation
- Rinse and peel the turmeric and ginger roots, then chop them roughly.
- Slice the lemon and oranges, removing seeds and white pith.
- Transfer everything into a blender and add the filtered water.
- Blend briefly until you obtain a cloudy, golden mixture. Avoid over-blending to prevent heat buildup, which can degrade antioxidants.
- Strain through a fine mesh or cheesecloth, pressing gently to extract all the juice.
- Divide the liquid into small glass vials, add a pinch of black pepper to each, and shake before refrigerating.
Notes
The shots can be stored in the refrigerator for up to five days. Drink one serving (about 60 ml) in the morning on an empty stomach or between meals. For variations, consider adding maple syrup for sweetness, warming it with cinnamon for winter, or diluting it with sparkling water for summer.
