Cold pressed blood oranges, turmeric, freshly ground cardamom and whole black pepper. This is one of our most popular shrubs, and for good reason.
A truly functional tonic with the soothing anti-inflammatory, herbal action of organic turmeric, alongside the warming digestive and antioxidant activity of fresh, ground, cardamom pods.
The use of turmeric as a remedy goes back thousands of years. It is a main stay of traditional Indian herbal medicine or Ayurveda. It is gentle and well tolerated but incredibly powerful, with a wide range of actions, including digestive support, liver detoxification, anti-inflammatory function and is a promoter of brain tissue health.
To accentuate the bioavailability and effectiveness of turmeric, we use the same method as traditional practitioners, which is to combine it with black pepper.
This shrub tastes aromatic, earthy, sweet and tangy. This is not your average, muddy turmeric latte.
Take daily, diluted in sparkling water as a whole body tonic and satisfying drop.
Benefits
Turmeric
Renowned for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, turmeric’s key compound, curcumin, is notoriously tricky for the body to absorb. We’ve thoughtfully crafted this shrub to its full potential by incorporating two ingredients to increase the bioavailability of the curcumin:
Black pepper.
Piperine found in black pepper has been used traditionally to enhance the absorbability of curcumin. We grind and add high-quality whole black peppercorns to the formula to turn it into anti-inflammatory gold.
Fermentation in raw Apple Cider Vinegar.
One of the other things that has been found to increase the bioavailability of curcumin is fermentation. Our shrubs are naturally fermented using raw Apple Cider Vinegar which contains both lactic acid and acetic acid. These bacteria work together to enhance curcumin’s absorbability. Lactic acid has been found to increase the bioavailability of curcumin, while acetic acid prevents curcumin breakdown in the stomach, allowing for deeper absorption further down the digestive tract.
Cardamom for Digestion and Inflammation
We freshly grind whole cardamom pods to retain their volatile oils and antioxidant potency. Cardamom is not only anti-inflammatory, it’s also a warming digestive aid that beautifully complements turmeric’s properties.
Fresh Blood Orange Juice
Cold-pressed blood orange juice provides a tangy brightness and a rich dose of vitamin C, supporting immunity and antioxidant defence.
How to use
This functional, fermented shrub is a delicious and effective daily tonic. Enjoy as a lunchtime digestive, a post-meal spritz, or your go-to alcohol-free option for gut-loving, anti-inflammatory support.
🍊 Mix 35ml of shrub with 200ml of sparkling water or soda water and ice for a refreshing, aromatic botanical soda.
Garnish with citrus wheel or wedge.
Splash a small amount into your shot of morning fire cider to help sweeten the brew and double the magic.
Also delicious enjoyed during the winter in hot water.
Ingredients
Cold Pressed Blood Oranges and Valencia Oranges, Raw Organic Apple Cider Vinegar, Raw Sugar, Turmeric, Whole Cardamom, Whole Black Pepper.

A slight kick...
The Turmeric reminds of that peppery note that you'd expect in some liquors. The blood orange is present, but not domineering in the taste. I
'm very happy to drink a turmeric latte, so have no problem with this taste.

Both the Shrub and the tonic are a staple in our home.
Who needs alcohol at the end of the day when you have the Shrub? I mix it with mineral water drop some ice in and have my own little cocktail. Tastes delicious and good for me too. It’s a win win!
While I’m here I also need to mention I have been gifted the immunity tonic. Twice now it has literally saved me. It is THE most effective cold & flu tonic there is. I have now gifted to two other people who now swear by it!
Your products are wonderful! Highly highly recommended.
Thank you for saving both myself and friends.

Our new favourite drink for sundowners - Blood Orange and Turmeric Shrub and Soda. Not too sweet and a great tangy taste! Feels like you're drinking something special -- but without the alcohol.

This is one of my favourite Pyewackets flavours. My partner jokes that it's my adult Fanta. It tastes like orange sherbet with a peppery turmeric punch.

Currently working my way through the catalog and any seasonal offerings. I must have the Blood Orange turmeric on hand, but all are amazing. These are the best booze free evening beverage that leave me feeling like I’ve missed nothing. Very fancy and nourishing!

Health in a bottle
This shrub is a mainstay in my winter health sickness-prevention routine! I take a bottle of the blood oj in hot water with Fire Cider added every day to work. It’s the most nurturing and warming health tonic I’ve ever come across!

The wonder of shrubs!
I adore Pyewacket’s shrubs! All of them :hearts:️ But I do have to say that the Blood Orange Turmeric Shrubs has become a favorite in our household, and also for guests. You can feel it’s magical medicinal effects, the slightly tart taste of the blood orange along with the fresh turmeric makes it a perfect mixer (we like it with Cointreau or Gin) but it’s also delicious paired with some soda water!

This was the shrub that made me fall in love with shrubs. The unexpectedness of the warm spicy cardamom and turmeric truly add magic to any drink, cocktail or cocktail. We discovered a splash in a margarita adds a whole new exciting kind of spicy and delicious depth. I feel like this one should be a fridge staple.
