Golden Goddess: Homemade Turmeric + Ginger Wellness Shots

Hi beautiful souls! It’s a great day to claim your inner joy. As you can see, I’m overflowing with joy and excitement to bring this experiment gone RIGHT to you today!

I recently signed up for Sunbasket because I heard great things about them from my neighbor. I really liked the fact that the meal kits were stocked with organic ingredients, which is aligned with my health and wellness goals. One of the free gifts I received was turmeric and ginger wellness shots! I LOVED the taste and the fact that I could quickly infuse my body with some top tier ingredients. When I ran out of shots I looked online to compare prices and simply couldn’t wrap my mind around spending $4 for a 1 oz shot, no matter how good it was!

So then I thought, why not make them myself? This would be much more economical (read: cheaper lol) and environmentally conscious because I wouldn’t be contributing to single-use plastic waste.

The result was fantastic! My golden-colored tonic was the perfect balance of sweet and spicy. I’m no medical doctor, but it just feels like it’s cleansing you from the inside out.  This recipe is especially on time as we are battling coronavirus. Immune-boosting recipes are needed now more than ever.
