What Do Ginger Shots Taste Like?

Simply put, ginger shots taste like ginger. The intensity of the flavor will depend on the ingredients you choose. If the spiciness of ginger is too strong for your liking, consider trying a ginger turmeric shot or adding sweetness with a lemon ginger blend.

Ingredients for Your Ginger Shot

To make a delicious ginger shot, start by selecting fresh ginger. Here’s how to ensure you’re getting the best quality:

• Firmness: Choose ginger that feels firm; avoid any that are soft, wrinkled, or mushy.
• Skin Texture: Look for smooth skin without thick or dry patches.
• Color: Fresh ginger has light brown skin; discoloration can indicate spoilage.
• Aroma: It should have a strong, spicy scent.

Once you’ve picked out your ginger, store it in the refrigerator in a plastic bag or airtight container. You can also freeze it for longer storage. When you cut into the ginger, it should be moist and juicy; if it’s dry or fibrous, it’s past its prime.

You’ll also need water to give your shot some liquidity. Depending on your taste preferences, consider adding honey, lemon juice, or cayenne pepper for sweetness, acidity, or heat.

Homemade Ginger Shot Recipe

Now that you have your ingredients ready, let’s make your ginger shot. You’ll need a peeler, a blender, and possibly a strainer:

1. Peel and chop 2-3 inches of fresh ginger into small pieces.
2. If using lemon, juice one lemon.
3. Combine the ginger and 1/4 cup of water in the blender. Add lemon juice 4. if desired, along with a pinch of cayenne or one to two teaspoons of honey.
5. Blend until smooth.
6. For a smoother shot, strain the mixture through a fine sieve or cheesecloth.
7. Pour into a shot glass and enjoy!
