Want to have a great morning? Change your pH with one of these quick fix shots! You see, while you sleep, your body is busy collecting toxins, making your body more acidic first thing – so, depending on how big the ‘detox” was, you might feel inexplicably terrible first thing in the morning.
And, depending on the recipe you choose, there will be more than just alkalizing going on, these shots also boost your energy, assist with digestion, help the body heal, reduce stress, clear skin, gloss hair, and so much more. Try it and see! The first one actually boosts your morning mood within 3 seconds flat! It works! I swear.
Here are all the beneficial details per shot recipe:
1. ACV + Lemon + Turmeric + Cayenne Shot
Not only alkalizes, but the ACV is an appetite suppressant, soothes aches and pains, helps with headaches, and actually will boost your mood within seconds after you drink it. What a miracle fix! The Lemon is a digestive booster, and the Turmeric + Pepper eases inflammation, boosts metabolism and 1 tsp shot is actually said to have the same positive impact as a 1/2 hour of exercise. Take this shot each morning for a fantastic daily boost!
2. ACV + Pineapple + Ginger Shot
Not only alkalizes, but the ACV is an appetite suppressant, soothes aches and pains, helps with headaches, and actually will boost your mood within seconds after you drink it, Ginger aids digestion and detoxes, while the fresh Pineapple also decreases inflammation and flushes toxins out of body with a substance called bromelain. Take this shot to replenish missing nutrients after a hard exercise routine, a stressful day, or a hard night partying.
3. Tarragon Shot
Not only alkalizes, but Tarragon is an excellent source of magnesium, iron, zinc, calcium, as well as vitamins A,C and B-6, and a potent source of antioxidants that help to neutralize disease-causing free radicals. Take this shot to replenish missing nutrients after a hard exercise routine, a stressful day or a hard night partying.
4. Beetroot Shot
Not only alkalizes, but Beets are known to boost stamina, lower blood pressure, fight inflammation, and detox. Take this shot before your workout, before working hard with family, job or both, or anytime of day! (I use this brand beetroot powder)
5. Goji Berry + Lemon Shot
Not only alkalizes, but Goji berries provide antioxidants, immunity boost, disease protection, health skin, boosts eye health, stabilizes blood sugar, cleans liver, boosts mood, energy and fertility. Lemon, of course, cleanses and boosts immunity, as well as wakes you up! Wow, do you agree this shot is not an option? Or if you can’t make the shot, at least eat the berries – 1/4 cup a day to receive all the benefits above ! (I use this brand for organic Goji berries)
The Healthy Shot Recipes
Creates 2-ounces to 2 Cups
1. ACV + Lemon + Turmeric + Cayenne Shot
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar (Most potent brand ACV is Braggs)
- 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 tsp turmeric
- pinch of cayenne or black pepper (to allow the beneficial curcumin in turmeric to be absorbed fully)
- 2 ounces of water
2. ACV + Pineapple + Ginger Shot
- 2 tbsp + apple cider vinegar (Most potent brand ACV is Braggs)
- Juice from 2-inch knob fresh ginger, (peeled, chopped, pressed for juice using a garlic press)
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh or frozen pineapple)
- 1/2 cup of water
3. Tarragon Shot
- 1 cup of tarragon tea (See how to make tea in Method below)
4. Beetroot Shot
- 1/4 cup finely chopped raw beet, or 1 tsp beet powder
- 1 cup of water
5. Goji Berry + Lemon Shot
- 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 1 cup of Goji berry tea (See how to make tea in Method below)
METHOD
—How to make the concentrated Tarragon tea : Pour 1 cup of hot water over 1 cup chopped fresh Tarragon leaves, let sit covered 20 minutes, strain off leave and keep liquid that is the resulting Tarragon tea to work with in the recipe.
—How to make the concentrated Goji berry tea : Pour 1 cup of hot water over 1/2 cup Goji berries, let sit covered 20 minutes, strain off berries (but keep them, air dry in a bowl, and eat them like raisins!), keep liquid – that is the resulting Goji berry tea to work with in the recipe.
–I typically recommend drinking at least 2 ounces of one shot a day, or more if you’d like. Some recipes make more than a daily 2-ounces so the blender has enough substance to blend – if so, just store in the frig a few days out. Feel free to double the blender recipes if your blender needs more substance to blend.
–Drink the shots with a straw to protect teeth from enamel damage by ACV or lemon, and staining by turmeric and beetroot. One last tip, follow any shot with an orange or lime slice as a palate cleanser..
