Description

A simple 4-ingredient Japanese drink made with warm water, pink Himalayan salt, grated ginger, and umeboshi plum—known as the Japanese Zepbound recipe, a natural morning reset for digestion, appetite control, and hydration.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup warm filtered water (about 120°F)
  • 1/8 teaspoon pink Himalayan salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
  • 1 small umeboshi (Japanese pickled plum), mashed
  • Optional: 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice or 1 tsp apple cider vinegar

Instructions

  1. Heat 1 cup of filtered water until warm but not boiling (around 120°F).
  2. Stir in 1/8 teaspoon pink Himalayan salt until fully dissolved.
  3. Grate 1/2 teaspoon fresh ginger and stir it into the salted water.
  4. Mash 1 small umeboshi plum and mix it into the drink until partly dissolved.
  5. Optional: Add lemon juice or apple cider vinegar for extra tang and digestive benefits.
  6. Sip slowly on an empty stomach in the morning before breakfast or coffee.

Notes

Best enjoyed first thing in the morning on an empty stomach. If umeboshi isn’t available, substitute with lemon juice. Drink slowly to maximize digestion and hydration benefits.
