Ginger juice

Ginger juice is an aromatic and spicy liquid extracted from the fresh root of ginger (Zingiber officinale), a plant native to Southeast Asia. This ingredient is highly valued in cooking for providing an intense, spicy, and fresh flavor that enhances both savory and sweet preparations, as well as beverages and marinades.

Ginger has been used for centuries in the gastronomy and traditional medicine of Asia, and its juice retains all its beneficial properties. It is known for its anti-inflammatory, digestive, and antioxidant effects, in addition to helping relieve stomach discomfort and improve circulation.

In recipes, ginger juice is used to add a spicy and refreshing touch without adding the fibrous texture of grated or chopped root. Its use is common in marinades, dressings, soups, teas, and desserts.

In the Hispanic American context, although the term "jugo de jengibre" is the most commonly used, it can also be referred to as ginger extract or ginger liquid.
