Ingredients
15 to 20 grams organic fresh turmeric root (or 2 teaspoons organic ground turmeric)
¼ cup water
6 tablespoons warm water (1½ tablespoons per shot)
½ teaspoon whole black peppercorns
4 teaspoons honey (skip if diabetic)
¼ cup lemon juice (or 4 teaspoons lime juice or orange juice)
½ to 1 teaspoon cold-pressed avocado oil (or melted coconut oil or ghee)
Instructions
- Wash and scrub fresh turmeric root. Peel with a spoon or butter knife, then slice it up.
- Optional: Simmer sliced turmeric in ½ cup water for 5 minutes. Let it cool.
- Blend turmeric slices (or use powder), ¼ cup water, and peppercorns until smooth.
- Strain through fine mesh or cheesecloth. Keep leftover pulp for soups or smoothies.
- In each shot glass, mix 1½ tablespoons warm water and 2 tablespoons turmeric liquid.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon honey until well combined.
- Optional: Add 1 tablespoon lemon juice and a few drops of avocado or coconut oil.
Notes
Use organic turmeric only—non-organic stuff might have additives.
Don’t drink it ice cold. Room temp or warm works best.
Works better mid-morning or after a light breakfast. Not on an empty stomach.
If you make a bigger batch, store in the fridge for up to 3 days, warm slightly
