Turmeric Ginger Energy Shots

Healthy turmeric-ginger energy shots that can be taken daily for their health benefits. Including anti-inflammatory properties and digestive aid. Plus, it takes just 4 ingredients and 15 minutes of your time!

I regularly make these energy shots to stay healthy. Turmeric and ginger both have great health benefits. They are anti-inflammatory and relieve cold and flu symptoms. Ginger supports overall digestion and curcumin, which is the main ingredient of turmeric, supports the immune system. I always feel energized when I drink this in the morning.

Turmeric Ginger Energy Shot Ingredients

• 120 g turmeric
• 140 g ginger
• 2 large lemons
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper

How to Make Turmeric Ginger Energy Shots

Peel the ginger and turmeric using a spoon. Attention: the turmeric will badly stain your hands and utensils! I recommend using gloves. Once peeled, add them to a bowl.

Squeeze the lemon either by hand or using a citrus press (more tips here). Add the lemon juice to the bowl.

Add to your blender or food processor and blend till smooth. If the paste is too thick, add a little more lemon juice or water.

Carefully pour the blended mixture into a nut milk bag, over a bowl. Attention: your nut milk bag will become yellow. It can just become your dedicated turmeric shorts bag.

Squeeze out all the liquid. I got about 1/2 liter of fresh turmeric-ginger-lemon juice.

Store in a glass container. If you have little glass vials of around 50 ml, one would be your daily dose.

Refrigerate and consume within 7-10 days. To keep them longer, you can add them to ice cube trays and freeze them.

You can also make this recipe with a juicer. Follow the steps here. Or give these other energy shots a try – Wheatgrass Shots and Lemon, Ginger, and Cayenne Immunity Shots.
