Growing Instructions
- To grow ginger, lemon, and turmeric at home, find fresh, unblemished roots of ginger and turmeric and organic lemon seeds.
- Plant them in well-draining soil in pots or a garden bed, ensuring they receive adequate sunlight and water.
- For ginger and turmeric, harvest small pieces as needed once the plants are established, typically after 4-6 months.
- For lemons, be patient, as it takes several years for a tree grown from seed to bear fruit.
Shot Preparation
- Once you have your fresh ingredients, peel the ginger and turmeric roots.
- Juice the lemon.
- Blend the peeled ginger, turmeric, lemon juice, and water until smooth.
- Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or nut milk bag to remove pulp.
- Add a pinch of black pepper, if desired, to enhance turmeric absorption.
- Pour into shot glasses and consume immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days.
Notes
For optimal benefits, use organic ingredients. You can adjust the amount of ginger, lemon, and turmeric to your taste. Consider adding a touch of honey or maple syrup for sweetness, if desired.
