Fire Cider Recipe:
Ingredients:
🌿 1 whole garlic bulb, smashed
🌿 1 whole lemon, sliced and squeezed
🌿 1/2-1 onion, chopped
🌿 3-inches fresh ginger root, thinly sliced
🌿 3-inches fresh turmeric root, thinly sliced
🌿 2 tbsp. horseradish
🌿 1 tbsp. dried astragalus root
🌿 Handful fresh rosemary
🌿 Handful fresh spearmint
🌿 Sprinkle crushed red pepper flakes
🌿 Raw apple cider vinegar
🌿 1/3-1/4 cup raw local honey, or to taste (for later!)
🌿 You may also add in cinnamon sticks, dried echinacea root, or use powder herbs if fresh is unavailable.
Directions:
💥 Clean ingredients and place all ingredients (besides apple cider vinegar and honey) in a large mason jar.
💥 Pour the apple cider vinegar in the jar until all of the ingredients are nicely covered.
💥 Cover tightly and shake well. You may use a piece of natural parchment paper under lid to keep vinegar from touching metal/plastic.
💥 Leave the jar on the counter and shake daily.
💥 After 4 weeks, strain out the herbs/ingredients and reserve the liquid.
💥 Add the honey (you may warm the honey first so it mixes well).
💥 Your fire cider should taste hot, spicy, and sweet — “A little bit of honey helps the medicine go down 🍯…” – Rosemary Gladstar.
💥 Rebottle the fire cider and enjoy!
💥 Fire Cider will keep for several months unrefrigerated if stored in a cool area or refrigerated.
💥 Take a small shot daily as a tonic or take more frequently if a cold is coming on/your immune system is battling something.
