We recently celebrated the official start of summer. Now, we're fully immersed in the season of pool hangouts, backyard barbecues, and late nights under the stars.
Are you looking for the perfect drink to sip throughout these warm-weather months? Our refreshing ginger elixirs are ideal! Not only will they cool you down, but they're also filled with the nutrients your body craves and needs during this time of the year.
What is an elixir drink and why should you try one? Today, we're taking a closer look at our ginger elixir collection and sharing everything you need to know!
What Is an Elixir Drink?
Before we dive into what makes our ginger elixir so scrumptious and good for you, let's take a step back. What is an elixir drink in the first place?
Put simply, these are brews that have special herbs or supplements added to them. They can be served warm or chilled. In a world filled with sugary sodas and artificial energy drinks, these are naturally delicious and actually good for you.
Adding elixirs to your daily routine is a great way to stay on track with your health goals. Infused with nutrients that will optimize your health and wellness from the inside out, they can help you feel and look your best. At the same time, they can also fortify your immune system, helping you ward off illnesses, infections, and diseases.
Why Ginger?
When crafting our ImmuneSchein elixir, we knew we wanted to create a handcrafter "formula" that would be incredibly sippable, as well as powerfully potent within the body.
All of our ginger elixirs are made from 100% real food ingredients. They're also handmade in small batches and are never mass-produced. This way, we can ensure that every bottle we create offers premium-quality natural hydration.
To make our Classic Ginger Elixir, we start by combining our organic ginger root with NYS wildflower honey and organic lemon juice. From there, we expanded our collection to include other types of ginger elixirs, all formed by adding just one ingredient to our base formula.
These extra ingredients include:
- Organic elderberry
- Organic lavender
- Organic turmeric root
- Organic cardamom
- Organic hibiscus flowers
- Local garlic
- Organic Ceylon cinnamon
- Local black currant
- Citra hops
In all, you won't find a great-tasting ImmuneSchein elixir that contains more than five ingredients. Yet, while these add-ins give each of our award-winning elixirs its own unique flavor, the organic ginger root is always the star of the show. That's because this ingredient packs a powerful health punch!
Some of the many health benefits of ginger include:
- Support for your digestive system
- Reduced inflammation and nausea
- Reduced muscle pain and soreness
- Natural cramp remedy
- Fewer cold and flu symptoms
- Alkalizing for an overall body PH balance
- Increased hydration and energy
You might not be willing to walk around and nibble on a ginger root all day, but you can access and enjoy all of the health benefits of real ginger root when you drink our elixir.
How to Enjoy Your Ginger Elixir
Whether you're sticking with the classic or you've dipped your toes into more adventurous territory, there are many different ways to enjoy your ginger elixir this season and beyond.
You can find many of our suggestions right on our website! Our Elixir Recipes page is filled with ideas to help you make the most of each sip. While you're free to get as creative as you can, here are a few of the most commonly used methods.
For the difference in our ginger elixirs and other brands, we never use any water, vinegar, additives, powders or perspectives, so this is 100% pure.
Taking as a Shot
Quick, simple, and to the point -- that's how we'd describe our ginger shots. You can make one by pouring a small amount of your chosen elixir into a glass. Or, you can also purchase and enjoy our pre-made ginger shots instead!
All of our ImmuneSchein ginger shots are delicious, but we especially love the simple ginger wellness shots. With perfectly blended notes of tart, sweet, and spicy, it's intense in the very best way. On an especially hot day, it's also a great way to get natural hydration ASAP.
Make Ginger Lemonade
There are few things as refreshing as a glass of lemonade on a hot summer day. To make yours, simply mix one ounce of our ginger elixir into cold water. If you prefer to sip a warm beverage or tea, make it with hot water! You can even create a yummy ginger ale by adding cold sparkling water.
One 2-ounce bottle of elixir makes two servings, while one 8.5-ounce bottle makes eight servings. If you're planning to make lemonade or tea for a group, you'll need our 33.8-ounce bottle, which makes around 33 servings!! Usually we mix 1 ounce of our ginger elixir to ever 10-16 ounces of water, and with our elixirs, you always have the flexibility to adjust for your taste and recipe preference.
Use as a Mixer
Looking for something unique and delicious to make your summer cocktails or mocktails with? Our ImmuneSchein elixir is the perfect addition! We share lots of drink concoctions on our Recipe page, like this cooling Ginger Mule!
