Warm Apple Cider Vinegar

I start EVERY.SINGLE.MORNING with a Spark + Rehydrate combo, and I also adopted the habit of drinking warm lemon water in the mornings a couple of months ago. (I add tumeric root & cinnamon.)
Jonathan hasn’t totally gotten on board with the lemon water yet, but he does drink apple cider vinegar every day. Apple cider vinegar has a TON of benefits for your entire body. (Seriously, look it up...it's powerful.) We prefer Bragg’s Organic (with the mother). I am avoiding it for the most part right now because it’s unpasteurized and I’m still nursing, but I think it’s okay in small amounts occasionally.

I have a friend that told me about this “cider” (I mean, obviously it’s apple ‘cider’ vinegar, but it’s tough to get down) that tastes good & helped nip her sore throat in the bud. I made it recently and both me and Jonathan liked it. Apple cider vinegar is alkalizing (like lemon water), & the rest of the ingredients have health benefits too.

Ingredients:
  • warm/hot water to preference (I use our tea kettle)
  • apple cider vinegar (about 2-4 tablespoons)
  • honey (about a tablespoon or so to taste)
  • cinnamon (to taste, but I use a good bit to make it taste good)
  • fresh squeezed lemon (optional)
Mix well & drink through a straw.

It’s a yummy drink for cooler weather and has lots of health benefits, so drink up!
