Fire Cider Tonic
WOW, they don't call it Fire Cider for nothing. There are so many recipes for this kind of tonic floating around, but this is my version. It is bright and cheerful looking in the jar, but don't be fooled, this can strip paint! Be very careful administering it to children. We are using around 2 teaspoons to a glass of sparkling water. You can also add boiling water to make a tea if desired which would be very soothing if you are feeling a bit under the weather. It is full of immunity boosting goodness and no bugs can stand up to the heat of this drink! We stand behind that claim! I've also been told on good authority that it makes a real kicker of a cocktail...go figure!
Stay well my lovelies...there are no bugs on you this year!
