Instructions

  1. Blend the mixture. Place all the ingredients in a high-powered blender. Put the lid on the blender, and process until the ginger and lemon juice mixture is smooth.
  2. Strain the liquid through a fine-mesh strainer. Press on the solids with the back of a spoon to extract as much juice as possible.
  3. Serve or store away. Pour the strained liquid into shot glasses and drink right away or store them in an ice cube tray or glass bottles.

Notes

  • Each shot is about 3 to 3 ½ tablespoons.
  • While you can peel the ginger if you’d like, it’s not necessary, since you’ll be straining the juice before drinking it. Just make sure it's washed well.
  • Ginger shots are meant to be drunk all at once as a quick shot. And yes, they’re potent! I always seem to let out a little “whoah” sound after drinking (see the video above, lol!). 
  • Each shot is about 3 to 3 ½ tablespoons.
  • You can always double, triple, or quadruple this recipe and save the remaining ginger shots for up to one week in a sealed container in the fridge. I love to make an extra-large batch and then store in these glass shot bottles or freeze leftovers in a Souper Cubes tray. If you use this small tray, one shot is equal to about 2 frozen cubes. You can then just thaw and enjoy as needed!
