Refreshing Health Shot: Ginger, Lemon, Orange, and Turmeric Bliss

in Amazing Drinks3 months ago

Packed with the goodness of ginger, lemon, orange, and turmeric, this invigorating elixir promises not only a burst of flavors but also a myriad of health benefits. Whether you're looking for a morning pick-me-up or a soothing sip to relax after a long day, this health shot has got you covered.

Versatility for Every Season
One of the best things about this health shot is its adaptability to any season. While it's an absolute delight when served cold, making it an ideal refresher during hot summer days, its immune-boosting properties also make it a go-to drink for the colder months. The zesty combination of citrus fruits adds a summery brightness, while the warmth of ginger and turmeric provides a comforting embrace during chilly evenings. So, whether you're sipping under the warm sun or cozied up by the fireplace, this health shot is your all-season companion.

Health Benefits
Now, let's talk about the powerhouse of nutrients packed into this tiny shot glass. Ginger, renowned for its anti-inflammatory and digestive properties, teams up with the immune-boosting qualities of turmeric to create a dynamic duo. However, be sure to add some black pepper in order to activate all the good stuff in turmeric!

The citrusy zest from lemons and oranges adds a refreshing twist while contributing a hefty dose of vitamin C, known for its role in supporting the immune system. Together, these ingredients create a holistic health shot that not only tantalizes your taste buds but also promotes overall well-being.

When to Indulge
Wondering when is the best time to indulge in this rejuvenating elixir? The beauty lies in its flexibility. Whether you prefer it as a morning ritual to kickstart your metabolism or as an afternoon pick-me-up for a natural energy boost, the health shot fits seamlessly into your daily routine. Additionally, consider sipping on it after a workout to aid in recovery or before bedtime to relax and unwind – the choice is yours.

Quantity Matters
While this health shot is a treasure trove of goodness, moderation is key. A small, concentrated serving is all you need to reap the benefits without overwhelming your palate. The intensity of the flavors ensures that a little goes a long way, making it a delightful addition to your wellness routine without excess. I personally drink a shot of 40 ml. each day when I have this drink on hand.

I keep this health drink in a fridge and it's best to use it in a week or so. If it's too much for you - you can also freeze it. Or share it with your friends and family!

In conclusion, embrace the goodness of nature with this enchanting health shot. Elevate your well-being with the powerful combination of ginger, lemon, orange, and turmeric – a harmonious blend that not only excites your taste buds but also nurtures your body.

You will need:
This makes about 500 ml. of drink
● 240 ml. water
● 70 g. of fresh ginger
● 120 ml. of fresh lemon juice (2 lemons)
● 120 ml. of fresh orange juice (2 oranges)
● 1 teaspoon of ground turmeric
● ¼ teaspoon of ground black pepper
● Optional: sweetener (maple or agave syrup, etc.) (I personally don't add any)

Preparation
1.Cut the ginger into small cubes (no need to peel).

  1. Squeeze the juice from the lemons and oranges. I use a simple manual juicer but if you have an electric one - it will make your process easier.

    3.Place all the ingredients in a bowl for blending and blend well with a hand or other blender.

    4.Drain well and keep only the liquid. You can drain it through a sieve or cheesecloth. Make sure to firmly squish the leftovers as they contain quite some juices.

    5.Transfer to a bottle or container and keep in the fridge.

You can drink about a shot a day (40 ml.) or any other quantity you choose. You can also make it into a bigger drink by mixing it with some more water if it's too intense. Consume fresh within ~ a week or freeze.
