Preparation Steps:
Prep Your Ingredients: Begin by peeling and chopping the fresh ginger, pineapple, and lime. Using fresh ingredients ensures maximum nutritional benefit and flavor.
Extract the Juice:
Using a Juicer: Feed the ginger, pineapple, and lime through the juicer to extract their juices.
Without a Juicer: Blend all the ingredients in a high-speed blender, then strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any fibrous pieces, leaving you with a smooth juice.
Serve: Pour the extracted juice into small containers, aiming for about 1/3 cup per shot. These shots are best enjoyed fresh, providing a zesty and invigorating start to your day.
Why Pineapple Ginger Shots?
Ginger shots are potent, thanks to ginger’s high levels of ketones and gingerols. These compounds, which give ginger its distinctive spicy flavor, are also powerful antioxidants. Ginger ranks high in antioxidant content, following pomegranates and certain berries.
