Ingredients
  

  • 2 ounces fresh ginger root about ½ cup roughly chopped
  • ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
  • ¼ cup coconut water or tap water
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 dash cayenne pepper

Instructions
 

  • Wash the ginger root, but leave the peel intact. Chop the ginger into large chunks and place in the blender. Pour in the lemon juice, coconut water, honey, and add a dash of cayenne.
  • Cover the blender and purée on high-speed until extremely smooth.

  • Pour the strained juice into shot glasses and serve immediately!

Notes

This recipe is most potent when made fresh daily. However, you can make several batches ahead of time and serve them throughout the week. The ginger juice will last up to 1 week kept in the fridge.
