Want to dip your toe into the world of wellness shots? Here are 8 of the best and why you may consider adding to your daily routine.

What is a wellness shot drink?

A little different to the shots you are perhaps used to… wellness shots are small ‘shot-able’ drinks that are usually packed with natural ingredients that can support our health.

Common ingredients include:

  • Ginger
  • Turmeric
  • CBD
  • Lemon
  • Apple
  • Collagen
  • Apple cider vinegar

What does a wellness shot do?

Think of them as a quick and convenient way to get some goodness into your body – no kitchen or blender necessary!

Each shot will have its own unique benefits, depending on what ingredients have been used.

3 benefits of wellness shots

  1. Quick: if you don’t have time to sit down and drink a large smoothie or eat a meal, a wellness shot can be a super-quick option to nourish your body with nutrients.
  2. Easy: instead of having to drag out the blender or cook up a storm, you can enjoy the benefits of wellness shots by simply unscrewing the lid and shotting it down!
  3. Concentrated: as there isn’t much liquid to work with, ingredients in wellness shots tend to be super concentrated so you don’t have to chug down a big old glass.

7 of the best wellness shots

We've rounded up 7 of the best wellness shots available today, either in shops or using your very own kitchen.

Reviews

What our customers think

Runner560 – Great stuff!! – 5/5 stars 
“I bought this to take before training sessions (100-mile runs) and it does give you an extra boost which is very noticeable. I was unsure about buying it due to not particularly being keen on the taste of beetroot, but I need not have worried as it’s not too bad."

Reviews

What our customers think: 

GI539 – Great product – 5/5 stars 
“This is a great shot. It takes wonderful and also the amount that you get is on a reasonable price compared to lots of other places which sell the same shots. I would definitely recommend trying this one out. I usually stock up when they have their offer on!”

3. Turmeric shots

Overview

  • Turmeric is a bright and mighty spice that has long played a significant role in traditional medicine. 
  • Most widely known as the ingredient in spicy Indian food that turns it yellow, it also has a range of health benefits.
  • Contains freshly pressed turmeric juice, rather than a powder or extract (a UK first!) 
  • Blended with pressed apple juice, lemon, pepper and chilli
  • A great alternative to drinks full of sugar and caffeine
 

Reviews

What our customers think:

9711elise – Delighted to have found these guys – 5/5 stars 
“Will be buying weekly easy to drink tastes great. Takes the hassle out of juicing turmeric root.”
 

5. Homemade apple cider vinegar shots

You can’t simply sip apple cider vinegar raw, as it could burn your mouth and throat, so why not make your own apple cider vinegar shot?

This ACV shot serves 1, but can be modified to make in bulk.

Ingredients

Method

  1. Simply combine the juice and vinegar in a small jar or bottle and give it a good old shake. 
  2. Cover and leave in the fridge for up to 2-3 days.
  3. Drink when you’re ready!

6. Homemade ginger shots

We already discussed the potential health benefits of a pre-packaged ginger shot above; a homemade one should be pretty much the same!

Here’s a recipe for a 1 lemon and ginger shot drink (adjust if you want to make multiple shots at the same time).

Ingredients

  • 15g fresh ginger
  • Juice of half a lemon
  • 1 teaspoon of honey

Method

  1. Peel the ginger and roughly chop before adding to your blender and blitzing for a few seconds.
  2. Add in the rest of the ingredients and blend until smooth.
  3. Cover and leave in the fridge for up to 2-3 days.
  4. Drink your yummy lemon ginger shot when you’re ready.

7. Homemade immunity shots

How do immunity shots work?

For a shot to be called an ‘immunity shot’, it should contain ingredients that support your natural immunity.

It works to ensure your immune system is functioning properly.

Try this lemon, ginger & turmeric shot recipe (makes 1 shot – but can modified to make in bulk):

Ingredients

  • Half a small orange
  • 1 small lemon
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger
  • 1 tbsp fresh turmeric
  • A pinch of black pepper
  • A dash of extra virgin olive oil

Method

  1. Peel the ginger and roughly chop before adding to your blender and blitzing for a few seconds.
  2. Add in the rest of the ingredients and blend until smooth.
  3. Cover and leave in the fridge for up to 2-3 days.
  4. Drink your tasty immunity-supporting shot when you’re ready.

You also asked:

When should I drink my wellness shot?

It shouldn’t really matter when you drink it, but if it’s an energising one then you’re probably better off enjoying it in the morning.

 

Should you take wellness shots on an empty stomach?

You can do, but it may be a little harsh on your digestion, so just see what works for you.

 

How long do wellness shots last?

Always check the label if it’s pre-packaged. Homemade shots tend to last for around 2-3 days in the fridge.
