How to Make Ginger Shots

Rinse ginger very well under running water. Scrub the ginger well with a vegetable brush and rinse thoroughly.

Pat dry and peel the skin with a spoon or table knife. Dust off all of the peel.

Using a Blender/Grinder: If you want to make a large batch of ginger shots, add the peeled ginger to your grinder/blender, black pepper and pour lemon juice. Grind until smooth, strain and stir in honey just before serving.

Manual Method: Grate it only as required to extract 1 tablespoon ginger juice per serving. Usually 5 grams of peeled ginger gives 1 tablespoon juice.

Place a strainer over a small cup and add all the grated ginger to it. Press down with a spoon and then squeeze it with your fingers to extract every drop of the juice.

Then squeeze 1 tablespoon of lemon juice to it. Add honey and black pepper. Give a good stir until honey dissolves.

Consume ginger shot immediately before it begins to oxidize. For best health benefits consume it on an empty stomach.

Slow Juicer Ginger Shot

Using a slow juicer is advisable only if you are making at least 4 to 5 servings of the ginger shots otherwise the quantity will be too little for the machine to crush. Run your slow juice. To the chute, add the ginger immediately followed by the lemon juice. Add back the pulp and then pour the collected ginger shot.

Serve ginger shot immediately.
