Benefits of the Main Ingredients
Fresh Turmeric Root
Fresh turmeric root provides its distinctive golden colour and earthy flavour. It contains naturally occurring plant compounds called curcuminoids and has been used in traditional cuisines around the world for centuries.
Fresh Ginger Root
Fresh ginger adds a warming, slightly spicy flavour while providing naturally occurring antioxidant compounds. It pairs beautifully with citrus and brings freshness to every sip.
Limes
Fresh lime juice and zest provide vitamin C together with a bright, refreshing citrus flavour that perfectly balances the warmth of the ginger and turmeric.
Water
Water helps create a refreshing, easy-to-drink consistency while keeping the wellness shots naturally hydrating.

Autism-Friendly Benefits
The strength and texture of these wellness shots can easily be adapted to suit individual sensory preferences. For a smoother consistency, strain the mixture after blending or juicing. If the flavour is too intense, dilute with extra water or serve over ice. A small amount of honey or apple juice can also be added for a naturally sweeter taste if desired. As every autistic individual has unique sensory preferences, the flavour, texture, and serving size can easily be personalised.
Tip
For the smoothest wellness shots, blend all the ingredients thoroughly and strain through a fine mesh sieve or nut milk bag before bottling. Store in airtight glass bottles in the refrigerator for up to five days and shake well before serving, as the natural ingredients may settle. For a slightly milder version, add a splash of orange juice or a teaspoon of raw honey to balance the bold ginger and turmeric flavours.
