Tips

Don't skip adding black pepper as it helps absorb curcumin from turmeric.
You can make a big batch and put some in the freezer for later and some in the fridge for immediate use.
If freezing, leave at least 2" headspace in the jar to allow for expansion.
Adjust the amount of water to make shots weaker or stronger.
Take a shot every morning on an empty stomach for a natural energy boost.
