If you are interested in boosting your overall immunity, try this ginger turmeric shot recipe. Both ginger and turmeric are powerful anti-inflammatory ingredients that have great benefits for your health.
But those aren’t the only helpful ingredients in the shots! Black pepper contains piperine which allows your body to absorb the goodness of the compounds in turmeric.

Ingredients for ginger turmeric shots
Equipment
I usually make small batches of ginger shots, so I often use a mini blender or smoothie blender. This particular recipe makes about 5 tall shots.
You can make larger batches with a regular sized blender and freeze them in ice blocks if you like.
Since I prefer peeling and grating the ginger and turmeric for my shot recipes, I also used a zester here.
How to make these ginger turmeric shots
Prep ingredients
Usually, I wash, peel and grate the ginger and turmeric. It really isn’t necessary but I like doing it to make sure I am using exactly a tablespoon or teaspoon. Grating helps me get my measurements right!
I also wash, cut and squeeze half a lemon for the juice.

Blend everything together
All that’s left to do is add the ginger, turmeric, lemon juice, honey and coconut water to a smoothie cup or mini blender and blend until smooth.
I typically pour the drink into tall shots and sprinkle some black pepper on top before leaving them to chill in the fridge. The shots can stay for about 2 days in the fridge. That’s it! So simple.
