Scale
- 3 medium fresh carrots, peeled
- 1-inch piece fresh ginger root, peeled
- 1-inch piece fresh turmeric root, peeled
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- A pinch of black pepper
- 2 tablespoons filtered water (optional)
Instructions
- Peel the carrots, ginger, and turmeric root carefully. Chop into smaller pieces that fit your juicer or blender chute. (About 5 minutes)
- If using a juicer, feed the carrots, ginger, and turmeric through the machine, collecting the juice in a clean glass or jug.

- Mix and taste. Add a splash of water if too spicy or intense.
- Pour into small shot glasses and serve immediately. Refrigerate leftovers up to 24 hours.
