Make your own ginger shot or buy it ready-made?
Want to make your own ginger shot? The basic recipe is simple:
- 1. Prep: Wash about 100 g of fresh ginger (organic ginger doesn’t need to be peeled), then roughly dice it
- 2. Blend: Blend until smooth with the juice of 2 lemons and 1 orange, plus about 100 ml of water
- 3. Optional: Add a piece of fresh turmeric or a pinch of chili
- 4. Strain: Pass through a fine sieve or cheesecloth, then pour into a clean bottle
- 5. Store: Keep refrigerated and consume quickly; homemade shots only last a few days
The difference from store-bought shots: Homemade shots are fresh, but time-consuming to make and have a short shelf life. The LiveFresh ginger shots are cold-pressed¹ and preserved using the HPP process without heating. You get the fresh intensity without peeling, blending, or washing up—always ready to grab from the fridge.
Ginger Shot Effects: What’s the Truth?
Hardly any other trendy drink is advertised with as many promises as the ginger shot. Let’s stick to the facts: There are no health claims for ginger approved by the EFSA. Reputable suppliers therefore do not promise any effects on the immune system, metabolism, or immune defenses.
What can be objectively said: The spiciness, which is perceived as warming and invigorating, comes from the natural pungent compounds in ginger root (primarily gingerols) and its essential oils. This effect is a matter of taste and subjective experience. Ginger shots are aromatic beverages that add variety and intensity to your diet—they are not a remedy.
When and how should you drink a ginger shot?
- In the morning: as a spicy start to the day, either neat or diluted with water
- After a workout: for an intense flavor boost
- Between meals: chilled straight from the fridge; thanks to the single-serving size, they’re perfect for on the go
- Sensitive stomach? Dilute with water or choose a milder variety
Typically, 30 to 50 ml per shot. Whether you drink it daily or occasionally is up to you—there’s no set rule.

What are the effects of a ginger shot?
There are no health claims for ginger approved by the EFSA. Therefore, specific claims about its effects are not legally permitted. Factually speaking, the warmth and spiciness you feel come from the natural pungent compounds in the ginger root; the effect is a matter of taste and subjective experience.
Is a ginger shot healthy?
Ginger shots contain natural ingredients such as ginger and citrus fruits and can be part of a balanced diet, for example as an alternative to sugar-rich beverages. They are not a substitute for a balanced diet and are not a remedy.
Do ginger shots strengthen the immune system?
No claims regarding the immune system are permitted for ginger; corresponding advertising claims by other providers have no legal basis. Ginger shots are flavored beverages, not immune-boosting products.
Do ginger shots help with weight loss?

How much ginger shot should you drink per day?
Typically, 30 to 50 ml per shot, either neat or diluted. There is no set upper limit; the amount depends on personal taste and tolerance.
When is the best time to drink a ginger shot?
Whenever you like. Many people drink their shot in the morning as a ritual to start the day, others after a workout or as a quick break throughout the day. There’s no “best” time from a nutritional standpoint.
Can I drink a ginger shot every day?
Yes, if you tolerate it well, there’s no reason not to have a shot every day. If you have a sensitive stomach, it helps to dilute the shot with water or choose a milder variety.
How do I make my own ginger shot?
Blend fresh ginger with lemon and orange juice and a little water until smooth, strain through a sieve, store in the fridge, and consume within a few days. If you want to skip the blending and deal with the short shelf life, opt for ready-made cold-pressed¹ shots.
What’s the difference between a ginger shot and a ginger-turmeric shot?
The ginger-turmeric shot also contains turmeric, which gives the shot a spicy, earthy note and its characteristic golden-yellow color. In terms of flavor, it’s a bit rounder and less citrusy than a pure ginger-lemon shot.
What should you do if you have a sensitive stomach?
Dilute the shot with water or choose a milder variety to reduce the spiciness. Taking it with a meal instead of on an empty stomach can also help.
How are the LiveFresh ginger shots preserved?
Using the HPP (High-Pressure Processing) method—that is, high pressure instead of heat. This preserves the flavor and freshness without any preservatives and without heating.
