Fire Cider

It is no secret in our house; I love all the vinegars! When I discovered Fire Cider I was all in. My holistic brain was jumping for joy like nobody’s business! Now, when people hear “Fire Cider” they often think it’s an alcoholic drink. While that is a definite possibility for the name of a mixed drink, that is not what I’m talking about here. Ha!

Fire Cider is a wellness support supplement made from whole foods to help bolster your cell’s response. It is easy to make, effective, and (personally) I think it tastes great! To make it, you’ll need a large jar of sorts to let the cider steep for 6-8 weeks while it works its magic. Next, the ingredients. You want fresh, organic, or homegrown if at all possible – so you know what the growing conditions were, and what was or was not sprayed onto the plants. Lastly, the vinegar. I use raw apple cider vinegar with the mother. All that means is the vinegar still contains the good bacteria that was created during the fermenting process.

Enjoy! Let me know if you try it! I would love to hear what you think.

I add quite a bit to my Fire Cider: Jalapenos, onions, garlic, lemon, oranges, cranberries, elderberries, wolfberries, thyme, oregano, rosemary, black pepper, cloves, cinnamon, and cayenne pepper. You could certainly leave any of the ingredients out or add more in as desired. Then, you top it off with apple cider vinegar and let it steep for a minimum of 4 weeks. I like to go for 6 weeks or longer. Then, you strain it, bottle it, and voila! Your very own germ-fighting goodness in a bottle!
