Start your morning with a touch of wellness with this revitalizing ginger shot, the perfect way to start your day fresh. A morning ginger shot with lemon, turmeric and pepper on an empty stomach offers a potent blend of immune support, anti-inflammatory action, digestive aid, detoxification, metabolic stimulation and natural energy, promoting overall wellbeing.

Serve the shot chilled and experience the tangy fusion of fresh ginger, bright turmeric, a hint of hot pepper and tangy lemon juice. This drink is a powerhouse for your immune system. To enjoy the benefits of this drink, you should drink it on an empty stomach.

Either pour the juice into a large glass bottle and portion out the appropriate amount each day in a small glass or pour the juice directly into small glass bottles in portions. Store the bottles in the fridge. I prepare the juice a week in advance. For one person, that’s 350ml a week. Make the ritual of this ginger elixir your own and greet every morning with a sip of health and happiness.
