Description

Use a blender or juicer to make fresh ginger juice - no peeling necessary! Enjoy it as a wellness shot by itself, add it to smoothies, teas or other drinks (hello homemade ginger ale!), or even use it in dressings and sauces.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 pound of fresh ginger root
  • 3 cups filtered water (if using a blender)

Instructions

Juicer Method:

  1. Brush off any dirt and rinse with water. Then cut the unpeeled ginger into roughly 2-inch pieces.
  2. Place ginger root pieces into juicer until all juice is extracted.
  3. Serve as a shot or see the blog post above for how to use ginger juice in recipes. Also see the blog post above for 3 recipes to use the ginger pulp.

Blender method:

  1. Brush off any dirt and rinse with water. Then cut the unpeeled ginger into roughly 2-inch pieces.
  2. Place ginger root pieces into blender and fill with water. You want the ginger to be more than fully submerged in the water to allow for easy blending.
  3. Strain the blended juice using a fine mesh strainer or a nut milk bag.
    1. If using a strainer, pour the blender contents into a glass through the strainer. Then use the back of a spoon to press more juice out of the pulp.
    2. If using a nut milk bag, pour the blender contents into the bag inside a large bowl. Then squeeze the pulp several times until all of the juice has been extracted.
  4. Serve as a wellness shot or see the blog post above for how to use ginger juice in recipes. 

Equipment

Notes

Store leftover ginger juice in an airtight glass container for 2-3 days for optimal freshness. Fill the container as close to the top as you can to avoid exposure to air.

Save the leftover pulp to use in a variety of ways (see blog post above for 3 recipes using ginger pulp).
