Introduction: How to Make a Superfood Ginger Wellness Shot

About: Hey y'all! My name is Lydia and I want to share my passion for cooking/baking with everyone!

With the new year and everyone trying to be healthy and trying to not get sick, I am sharing this Superfood Ginger Wellness Shot (there isn't any alcohol in it). I want to say that you can customize it by adding more or less of these ingredients. I was inspired to make my own ginger shot after visiting Hawaii last year with my family and being served this on the roadside of a fruit stand by an awesome hippie that had a bunch of homemade healthy stuff he was selling, he let us sample the ginger shot alongside a bunch of other goodies and this ginger shot stuck with me and I knew I had to make it once I got back to the mainland. Follow along as I make this easy Ginger Wellness Shot and watch the video, it is really easy!

Supplies

Step 1: Ingredients

  • 5 oz ginger or 3.5 oz pure ginger juice
  • 8 lemons
  • ½ - 1 cup honey
  • 2 cups water
  • Weight Converter (if you need help converting the measurements)

Step 2: Roll and Cut Lemons

Start off by rolling and cutting all the lemons in half.

Step 3: Squeezing the Lemons

Squeezing the lemons into a large pitcher that has a sieve on top to caught all the seeds. I used a fork to help get all the juices out of the lemons.

Step 4: Juice the Ginger

Next juice the ginger. You will need a juicer for this step, unfortunately I don't know another method of juicing the ginger.

Step 5: Add Ginger Juice to Lemon Juice

Add the ginger juice (I usually do not add the white stuff on the bottom) to the lemon juice. I used a sieve to get any extra pieces of ginger that the juicer missed.

Step 6: Add Water and Honey

Add in water and honey. Give this a good stir until everything is combined. Make any adjustments to your drink.

Step 7: Storage

You can add this to a mason jar and store this in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Step 8: Enjoy!

Enjoy a wellness shot! I like to drink this when I feel like I might be getting a cold or for over all wellness!
