Description
A fiery, refreshing shot made with ginger, lemon, and cayenne perfect for mornings or immunity boosts.
Ingredients
¼ cup fresh ginger root, washed and roughly chopped
⅓ cup fresh lemon juice (about 3–4 lemons)
¼ cup coconut water
A pinch or two of cayenne pepper
Instructions
1. Blend the chopped ginger, lemon juice, coconut water, and cayenne in a high-speed blender until smooth.
2. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve, pressing the pulp to extract as much liquid as possible.
3. Pour into small bottles or shot glasses and consume immediately or refrigerate for later.
4. Shake gently before drinking if stored.
Notes
Each shot yields about 3 to 3½ tablespoons.
No need to peel ginger if it’s well washed.
Can be made in bulk and stored for up to one week in the fridge or frozen in trays.
Best consumed one shot at a time due to potency.
