What is actually in a garlic, ginger and turmeric shot?

Six ingredients, no added sugar, and a reason for each one. A plain-English breakdown of what goes into The Daily Energy Drink.

People ask what is in it far more often than they ask what it does. That is a good instinct — so here is the list, and why each thing is there.

Garlic

Sharp, savoury and traditionally used for immune support. It is the ingredient people notice first and miss most when it is not there.

Ginger

The heat. Warming, aromatic, and long used to settle the stomach and wake you up.

Turmeric

Earthy and deeply coloured. Widely used for its anti-inflammatory reputation; we pair it with the fruit acids so it is not chalky.

Orange and pineapple

The brightness and the natural sweetness. No sugar is added — everything sweet in the bottle came in with the fruit.

Dates

A small amount for body and roundness, so the finish is not all bite.

What is not in it

No added sugar, no sweeteners, no preservatives, no concentrate. It is made in small batches and collected the same day, because that is the only way a drink like this stays like this.

One important note: this is a food, not a medicine, and it does not treat or prevent anything. If you have allergies or take regular medication, check the full ingredient list on our product page and speak to your GP or pharmacist.
