Method

  • step 1

    Chop the ginger into small chunks. Tip into a blender with the apple and lemon juice and blitz for a few minutes until very smooth.

  • step 2

    Set a very fine sieve over a jug. You could also line a regular sieve with a piece of muslin or a clean, thin tea towel. Tip the juice into the sieve and leave it to drain, then press the remaining pulp with the back of a ladle until dry. If you’re using a cloth, twist to squeeze all the juice out. Drink straightaway or decant into a bottle. Will keep chilled for up to four days. Shake well before serving.

Recipe tips

Make as much as you want: We tried many different quantities of ginger to liquid and the amount we liked most for a shot that was still very gingery but not overpowering was 15g ginger per 100ml liquid. This makes a 100ml serving or two 50ml shots. Use these proportions to make as much or as little ginger juice as you'd like.
Make with pineapple: Pineapple juice can replace the apple juice for a more tropical flavour.
Just ginger: If you don’t want to use fruit juice you can simply replace with the same amount of water, but you might need to sweeten with honey to taste.
Turmeric & ginger juice: To add the health benefits of fresh turmeric to your shots simply swap half the ginger for turmeric prepared the same way as the ginger.

question

It says serves 4-6, but what is the actual ml serving suggestion? It mentions both 2x 50ml shots and 100ml serving, which is confusing as the recipe yields more than 100ml. Worried about exceeding the RDA for ginger. Thanks!

Can this be made with dried ginger? If so, what quantity? Thank you

question

Hello, could this be made with dried ginger instead? If so, how much, and how would the nutrition be affected?

Used orange juice as a variant. Great option.

Can you add powdered tumeric instead of fresh?

You can buy Google toxic turmeric, you might want to go for non turmeric shots!
