FAQs
Can I make these shots without a blender?
It’s best to use a blender to properly break down the pineapple, ginger, and lemon. However, if you don’t have a blender, you can grate the ginger and pineapple finely and mix with the other ingredients before straining.
Why add black pepper to the shots?
Black pepper contains piperine, which enhances the absorption of curcumin, the active compound in turmeric, maximizing its health benefits.
