If you already read my article about the ten health benefits of ginger, you might recall that I mentioned drinking a ginger shot every morning.
This daily lemon ginger shot is packed with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties, boosting my immune system, aiding digestion, and controlling blood sugar. Plus, it leaves me feeling energized and ready to face the day.
It is so easy and quick to make – perfect for those who are not morning people (who, me?). By making it at home, I know exactly what’s in it and it saves some money too.
So, why not join me in this simple morning routine and start your day with a refreshing ginger shot?
Ingredients
- One medium-sized peeled ginger root (rhizome)
- One lemon

Method
- Add all the ingredients (except black pepper) into a blender
