Ginger Turmeric Wellness Shots With Lemon Cayenne Fresh Recipes

Instructions

1. Start by preparing your fresh ginger and turmeric. Peel the ginger using a spoon (it's easier than using a knife) and roughly chop it into small pieces. Do the same with the turmeric, making sure to protect your hands as it stains easily.

2. In a blender, combine the ginger, turmeric, lemon juice, cayenne pepper, and water. Blend on high speed until everything is well combined and you have a smooth liquid.

3. Taste the mixture and adjust the flavors as needed. You can add more lemon juice for tartness, cayenne pepper for heat, or honey for sweetness. Remember that the honey is optional, so feel free to leave it out if you prefer a less sweet shot.

4. Once you're happy with the flavor, strain the liquid through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove any remaining pulp. This step is optional if you enjoy the texture, but straining will give you a smoother shot.

5. Pour the strained liquid into small shot glasses or an airtight container for easy pouring. These shots are best served chilled, so you can store them in the fridge for up to 3-4 days.

6. When you're ready to enjoy your wellness shot, give it a quick stir to mix any settled spices. Take a small shot each morning or whenever you need a natural boost of energy and immunity.
