How to Prepare Ginger Shots:

Making this homemade ginger shot recipe is a quick and straightforward process, taking around ten minutes from start to finish, depending on the number of shots you want to prepare. Here’s how I like to make them, particularly during the cold and flu season, or when I’m not feeling my best.

  1. Prep Ginger and Fruit: Begin by peeling and chopping fresh ginger, pineapple, and lime.
  2. Juice: You can use a juicer to extract the juice from ginger, pineapple, and lime by pushing them through the tube feeder. If you don’t have a juicer, blend all the ingredients in a high-speed blender. After blending, strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve to remove any remaining fruit and ginger pieces.
  3. Serve: Pour approximately 1/3 cup of the ginger shot mixture into each shot glass.

Why These Ginger Shots Are Beneficial:

Ginger shots are a concentrated beverage packed with numerous health benefits. Ginger belongs to the same plant family as cardamom and turmeric. Its distinctive spicy flavor comes from compounds known as ketones and gingerols. Ginger has antioxidant properties, ranking second only to pomegranates and certain berries.

Since ginger shots may not be the most enjoyable drinks on their own, adding pineapple provides a hint of sweetness, making them more palatable. Pineapples are rich in bromelain, magnesium, and vitamin C, offering additional nutritional advantages.
