Fire Cider is a traditional cold remedy with deep roots in folk
medicine. Almost every herbalist makes a version of this tasty combination of
cider vinegar infused with powerful immune-boosting herbs and vegetables. Fire
Cider is especially pleasant and easy to incorporate into your daily diet to
help boost the immune system, stimulate digestion, and get you nice and warmed
up on cold days.
Because this is a folk preparation, the ingredients can vary slightly, depending on when you make it and what’s growing around you. The standard base ingredients are apple cider vinegar, garlic, onion, ginger, horseradish, and hot peppers, and we will discuss plenty of other herbs that you might want to include in your own Fire Cider.
Cost for this class is $30. Bring a quart of raw apple cider vinegar to class, all other ingredients will be provided.
