Have you ever juggled a bunch too much? Ahh! My November has been so crammed, I look forward to free time next week, when my first Fire Cider will be ready. Yep, I dread the taste. The concoction contains hot peppers, onion, ginger root, horseradish and more. But, after steeping in cider vinegar for a month, the brew is said to:
- Boost immunity
- Help digestion
- Reduce inflammation
- Lower blood pressure
- Clear congestion
- Reduce cholesterol
- Increase energy
- Ease arthritis
I learned to make Fire Cider in my Urban Gardening workshop, sponsored by Phipp’s Conservatory. Here’s a recipe and more information.
