Did you have a wild night last night?
Did you wake up feeling like you needed a little something extra to get you through the day?
No matter what has you feeling less-than-amazing in the morning, I’ve got just the thing that will pick you up and give you the best way to start the day (well second-best next to morning sex).
* The perfect detox shot has entered the chat.*
On the days when you’re hungover, bloated, or need some extra vitamin C, this shot of spicy deliciousness will have you feeling much better in no time.
All of the ingredients are easy to grab at your favorite local grocery store and will put a much smaller dent in your wallet than buying a pre-made shot.
Plus, things like this just feel even more healthy when you DIY them, you know?
Here’s how to make it.
