Ginger People Turmeric Juice

Golden, resinous and gently bitter with a peppery kick that lingers, this is turmeric as juice rather than powder. The Ginger People's Turmeric Juice is pressed from Fijian rhizomes and bottled with just a touch of citric acid, so the flavour is unmistakably fresh rather than dusty. It's the kind of thing that makes you reconsider what turmeric can actually taste like.

Why You'll Love It

There's nothing to it beyond pressed turmeric and a little citric acid to keep it stable, which means what lands on your tongue is the root itself: bright, warming and a bit resinous, with a long finish that dried spice never quite manages. The texture is thin and pourable, so it disappears easily into drinks or a hot pan without any grittiness. Being entirely plant-based, it fits neatly alongside most other ingredients in a vegan kitchen without any substitution needed.

How to Use It

Give the bottle a good shake before pouring, as the juice settles over time, then take a small measure neat as a shot or stretch it with orange juice, coconut water or sparkling water over ice. It pairs well with lemon, honey or maple, a squeeze of lime, or a crack of black pepper to sharpen the warmth. In cooking, stir it into curries, dals and coconut broths near the end of cooking so the colour stays vivid, whisk it into a marinade for chicken or cauliflower, or add a splash to a mango and banana smoothie. Once opened, keep it in the fridge.

About The Ginger People

The Ginger People work directly with growers to turn fresh ginger and turmeric roots into juices, syrups and preserves without unnecessary processing. Their focus stays on strong, honest flavour and short ingredient lists that work as well in the kitchen as they do straight from the bottle. This Fijian turmeric juice, with barely anything added to it, shows that philosophy at its simplest.
