Equipment

  • Blender
  • Cheesecloth or fine mesh strainer
  • Knife and cutting board
  •  Measuring cups and spoons
  • Ice cube trays (optional)

Ingredients
  

Essential Ingredients

  • 4 cups Pineapple chunks
  • 1 cup ginger
  • 1/4 cup raw honey
  • 1/4 cup cold water (If needed)

Optional Add-Ins

  • 1 inch piece fresh turmeric (peeled and sliced) or 1 teaspoon ground turmeric, plus ⅛ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice (about ½ a large lemon, peeled to prevent bitterness)
  • ⅛ tsp cayenne pepper
  • ½ cup unsweetened coconut water
  • ⅛ tsp mineral salt

Instructions
 

  • Start by peeling and slicing the ginger. Measure out the pineapple chunks and raw honey.
  • Combine pineapple, ginger, raw honey (or maple syrup), and any optional add-ins in a blender. Add water or coconut water if needed.
  • Blend until smooth and pourable.
  • Strain through cheesecloth or a fine-mesh sieve for a silky texture. (Note: Straining removes some fiber and nutrients but gives a smoother drink.)
  • Alternative Method: If you have a juicer, run the pineapple and ginger through it, then whisk in honey (or maple syrup) and any spices.
  • Serve about 2 ounces per shot, chilled or over ice.
  • Store in a sealed jar in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze in ice-cube trays for longer.

Notes

  • Makes about 8–10 shots (2 ounces each).
  • Store in airtight glass jars for up to 5 days max. Freeze beyond 5 days to maintain freshness and nutrients.
  • Use maple syrup instead of honey for a vegan version.
  • Add a pinch of black pepper when using turmeric to help your body better absorb nutrients.
  • For extra hydration, swap the water for unsweetened coconut water.
  • If citrus feels too acidic, skip it. The pineapple provides all the brightness you need.
  • Best served cold as a quick morning boost or post-workout refresher.
  • Gentle on digestion and full of natural vitamin C for approachable, everyday wellness.
  • New to ginger shots? Start with ½ cup of ginger and increase to the full amount as desired. Fresh ginger can be quite bold, especially in concentrated shots.
