Healthy turmeric-ginger energy shots that can be taken daily for it’s 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 energised when I drink this in the morning.
Makes: ~1/2 litres
Preparing Time: ~10 minutes
Ingredients
- 120 g turmeric
- 140 g ginger
- 2 large lemons
- 1/4 tsp pepper
Directions
1. 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.
2. Squeeze the lemon either by hand or using a citrus press. Add the lemon juice into the bowl.
3. Add to your blender or food processor and blend till smooth. If the paste is too thick, add a little more lemon juice or a little water.
4. 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.
5. Squeeze out all the liquid. I got about 1/2 litres of fresh turmeric-ginger-lemon juice.
6. Store in a glass container. If you have little glass vials of around 50 ml, one would be your daily dose.
7. Refrigerate and consume within 7-10 days. To keep them longer, you can add them to ice cube trays and freeze them.

Love all your DIYs! Thank you so much for all the tutorials. Quick question, how long can they last in the fridge?
Hi Arushi,
Thank you so much!
In the fridge, they last 7-10 days. If you freeze them, they can last a couple of month. You can use big ice cube trays so then you can easily de-freeze one or two cubes.
Hi! I watch and love all your DIY’s! I have a question, where do you buy the bag you use all the time and the tiny shot glasses? Thank you! :-))
Hi Nathalie,

What is the turmeric and why you use different ingredient than the one u did by juice maker
Hi Amira,
Turmeric is another ingredient that is really good for health. I try to vary the shots each week. There will be more energy shots DIYs coming up. 🙂
Hi! I love these, but where can I find the small glass bottles?
Thanks!!
Hi Xio,
I am glad you are enjoying these. You can find the small glass bottles here: https://amzn.to/2S9J36k
I hope this helps 🙂
How long do I have to take this ? As in the frequency of taking this ?
Hi Indra,
You can take the energy shots when you feel like you need a little boost. I try to vary the ingredients each week so I can take advantage of their different nutrients. :))
Tumeric ginger shots are so good for your overall health.
Yes, they are excellent 🙂
Will it produce the same amount of liquid if you use a juicer?
Hello.
It would produce about the same amount of liquid when using a juicer.
Hi
I’d like to try this but cannot get fresh turmeric. Can I use powdered turmeric.
Thank you.
Hey, I always prefer to use fresh but I think around a tsp of dried turmeric powder would work for this recipe:)
I really love this recipe. I have been making these for 2 weeks now and really enjoy them first thing in the morning. Thank you!
