These 6-ingredient ginger shots (with pineapple, orange, and cayenne), are potent with immune-boosting, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory benefits. They can be made in a blender or juicer!
You can watch the short video for visual instructions.Wash and scrub the ginger root under running water before you chop it into smaller chunks.
Squeeze 2 oranges to get ½ cup of orange juice. Also, squeeze about 3 limes (or 2 lemons) for ¼ cup of juice.
Add all ingredients to a blender and blend until the mixture is fairly smooth.
Pour the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve (or nut milk bag) into a bowl or measuring cup.
Transfer the juice to several smaller (preferably sealable) glasses and store them in the refrigerator for up to a week.I consume one shot in the morning and recommend starting slowly.
Notes
Coconut water: You can use more orange juice (or any other fruit juice, or even water) instead.
The recipe makes about 2 cups of juice. You can also freeze the juice in an ice cube tray for up to three months.
