Start by peeling and chopping the ginger into smaller pieces.

Add the chopped ginger and water to your blender. Blend on high until the mixture is smooth and frothy, which usually takes about 30 seconds.

Pour the blended mixture through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth into a bowl or pitcher.

Add fresh lemon juice and raw honey to the strained ginger juice. Stir well until the honey dissolves completely.

If you like a bit of heat, stir in cayenne pepper at this stage.

Carefully pour the ginger shot into small glass jars or shot glasses.

You can serve the shots immediately or chill them in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.

Take your ginger shot in one go for the full flavor experience.
