HOW TO MAKE FIRE CIDER
Learn how to make fire cider to fight off colds and flus. Everyone should have this herbal remedy in their pantry to boost immunity and support.
Whenever possible, I use organic ingredients!
Equipment
- Half-gallon glass jars
- Wide-mouth storage caps
Ingredients
- 1 head of garlic chopped
- 1 large onion
- 1/2 cup grated horseradish root
- 2 jalapenos
- several sprigs of fresh rosemary
- 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper or more if you can handle the heat (I’m using this for my family so keeping it doable for the kids)
- raw apple cider vinegar I like to buy this in bulk from Azure
- 1 cup or to taste raw honey, preferably local
Instructions
- Combine all DRY ingredients into a half-gallon glass jar.
- Pour raw apple cider vinegar to cover all ingredients and up to the neck of the jar.
- Cover the jar using a plastic lid (vinegar will corrode a metal lid).
- Store in a cool, dark place for 2-4 weeks. Shake daily. I keep it in my pantry. Ready to use in 2 weeks, but I like to steep mine for at least 4 weeks.
- Strain out the vinegar into another glass jar.
- Add honey to taste and stir to combine
- Administer 1 tsp daily as a preventative measure. One TBS at onset of illness 3 times per day, every hour if sick.
- For young children, use smaller dosing. Do your research and due diligence for appropriate dosing for your children.
