Notes
If the shot is too strong, add more water or honey to soften the bite. Black pepper enhances turmeric absorption. Store leftover shots in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 48 hours and shake before drinking. Use a spoon to peel roots to avoid waste and bruising. Fresh ingredients provide the best flavor and nutrient profile. Turmeric can stain surfaces and fabrics; clean tools promptly.
