Carrot Ginger Shot

Preparación

1. 1

   Begin by thoroughly washing the fresh ginger root to remove any dirt or debris.

2. 2

   Peel the ginger root and then finely grate it to yield about 1 tablespoon of grated ginger.

3. 3

   In a blender, combine the grated ginger, 1 cup of carrot juice, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, and 1/4 cup of water.

4. 4

   Blend the mixture on high speed until it is smooth and the ginger is well incorporated.

5. 5

   Place a fine-mesh strainer over a bowl or large measuring cup and pour the mixture through to strain out the ginger fibers.

6. 6

   Use a spoon to press down on the ginger pulp to extract as much liquid as possible.

7. 7

   Discard the ginger pulp and pour the strained liquid into a glass or shot glasses.

8. 8

   Serve the carrot ginger shot immediately, or refrigerate and consume within 24 hours for best flavor and nutrient retention.
