Zenzero Colpo (Ginger Shot!)

A few years ago my husband and I went to Hawaii for our Anniversary, and one of the restaurants we visited offered a "Zenzero Colpo" before our meal was served.

It was delicious, so I did some research on what this wonderful drink was!

"Zenzero Colpo" is Italian for "Ginger Shot"!




The ingredients are simple:

  • 1 apple
  • 1 lemon
  • 1" slice of ginger
Juice (in your juicer) all three ingredients together and serve in a shot glass.

The ingredient amounts can be increased or decreased to your liking (some people like more or less Ginger, etc).  The key is to make the drink pretty potent and serve it right before a meal.

What is the reason for this? To help with food digestion!

Apples contain enzymes and pectin
Lemons help alkalize your body
Ginger enhances digestion and helps reduce stomach upset and nausea

This "shot" is also a great energy booster!
You can drink it in the morning in place of coffee for a great "wake up" drink without the caffeine.

Try a shot today!
