Keyword: Apple Cider Vinegar, cold remedy, Fire Cider

Ingredients

  • 3 Whole Apples
  • 1 Whole White or Red Onion
  • 4 cloves Garlic
  • 2 Whole Oranges
  • 1 inch Piece of Ginger
  • 1 Tablespoon Cayenne Pepper Powder
  • 4 sprigs Fresh Rosemary
  • 4 Tablespoons Honey
  • 32 ounces Apple Cider Vinegar with the Mother

Instructions

  • Slice Apple, Onion, and Orange and place in a large canning jar with a lid.
  • Remove skin off the ginger and roughly chop or grate it. Place it in jar.
  • Add the Rosemary springs and Cayenne Pepper to the jar. Pour the Apple Cider Vinegar over the top of everything. It should cover the ingredients completly.
  • Cover the jar and set in a place where it can be in sunlight or at least in a warm place. If the lid is metal, protect it with waxed paper as the vinegar will rust the metal.
  • Let the jar sit for at least one month. Turn or shake jar daily.
  • After it has set for a month, strain out all the liquid and add warmed honey. Stir.
  • Take a shot daily to stay healthy or take as needed. If you feel you have a cold coming on take one tablespoon every 3 to 4 hours until your symptoms have resolved.
