This Ginger Turmeric Shot contains a bunch of anti-inflammatory ingredients. Skip the expensive ones from the store – and make your own in less than 15 minutes!

Can I Make a Ginger Turmeric Shot With No Juicer?

To make your own Ginger Turmeric Shot, you just need a high speed blender and a fine mesh strainer or cheese cloth. You can of course use a juicer as well, but this is a simple way of doing it that is accessible to most people.

You simply add all of the listed ingredients to a high speed blender and combine until smooth. Once the liquid is bright yellow and smooth in consistency, place a glass container down on your counter, and drain the “juice” through your fine mesh strainer, reserving the pulp. You can actually use the pulp to add a spicy kick to stir-fries or curries, or compost.

What is a Ginger Turmeric Shot good for?

A Ginger Turmeric Shot is a great way to get a bunch of anti-inflammatory ingredients in your body in one go. This Ginger Turmeric Shot is packed with the following, which all have their own unique benefits:

  • Ginger: can treat both nausea and bloating, and help manage blood sugar spikes
  • Turmeric: an amazing anti-inflammatory spice known for supporting brain health and reducing swelling
  • Oranges: an excellent source of vitamin C and hydration

We have also added black pepper to this shot to activate the powerful compound curcumin present in turmeric, which is also known as anti-inflammatory.

Can I take a ginger shot daily?

We suggest taking a 1.5 ounce ginger shot daily if you enjoy the way it makes you feel! For many, they enjoy taking one each morning to help ward off sickness and keep their stomach settled.
