Notes

  • A 40-gram (1.4-ounce) piece of gingerroot will be about 3 inches long. The same goes for turmeric. 
  • Use fresh ginger and turmeric for this recipe! 
  • This recipe works best in a high-speed blender like a Vitamix. You can also send all of the fruits through your juicer. 
  • If you want a smoother shot, strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve to remove the pulp before serving. 
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
