Shots are more popular than ever now — and we're not talking about the boozy kind [1]. If you're into juicing or a frequent customer at a juice shop in your area, chances are you're into fresh ginger shots [2] and turmeric shots [3] — even wheatgrass shots! A little blast of concentrated plant-based goodness can give you the micronutrients [4] your body is craving as well as aid your immune system [5] and your body's inflammatory responses.

Brands have become more creative with the way they pack nutrient-dense veggies and herbs into shots, including Zupa NomA, a plant-based soup brand that recently launched soup shots [6]. You read that correctly!

From Carrot Ginger Turmeric to Tomato Vinegar Habanero and Kale Cucumber Jalapeño, these micro soups are the savory complement to a sweeter juice shot regimen — and they each have different health components and bring something unique to the table . . . and your body!

The curry-inspired ginger turmeric shot is great for inflammation, digestion, and immune support, while spicy Bloody Mary-esque tomato shot is a great gut healer [7] for your microbiome [8]. And you'd be remiss to skip the spicy green-juice-style kale cucumber shot that gives you a surge of energy and tons of vitamins and minerals.

They're $3 per shot (less if you subscribe!) and they're delivered to your door, fresh, chilled, and ready to drink. You can even build a crate with soups and shots [9], making for easy plant-based swaps [10] for your busy week.

My favourite so far is the Tomato Vinegar Habanero (what can I say, I actually love virgin Bloody Marys!) — but you'll definitely want to try all three for a bite- (sip-?)size treat of tasty nutrition. You know the deal . . . shots, shots, shots, shotshotshots — EVERYBODY! OK, I'll stop now.
