A Simple 3-Ingredient Green Juice Cocktail Recipe To Make At Home

This light, citrus-like cocktail is like lemonade for adults – perfect for summer happy hours. The green powder contains an earthy organic mixture of ginger, turmeric and cinnamon to balance the tart and sour lemon and provide a tasty taste profile.

Along with its flavor enhancing abilities, ginger and turmeric have been shown to improve digestion. * This can be helpful as alcohol can cause indigestion in some people, says registered nutritionist Jess Cording, MS, RD, CND, especially if they consume too much of it. Here, of course, we recommend moderate consumption.

"Since organic vegetables + contain digestive enzymes, probiotics, and a good source of prebiotic fiber, it can be a way to incorporate some gut-healthy elements into your day," says Cording. "Just note, that doesn't automatically mean your cocktail will be healthy. A cocktail is still a cocktail."

When consuming alcohol, it is important to listen to and react to the various reactions of the body and to make changes if necessary. That can mean swapping out the gin for a different type of liquor (see some variations below) or opting for a mocktail instead.
