Notes
- This drink is the most potent and beneficial just after it is made, but you can mix it together ahead of time. Simply store it in a covered container and shake it before serving. It will last in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- You may increase the honey to 1-2 teaspoons, if your prefer a sweeter drink.
- The mother in apple cider vinegar is the organism that ferments the vinegar and provides probiotics. Choosing a bottle of ACV with this inside provides the best benefits for your health.
- Don't drink straight vinegar as it can erode the tooth enamel. Mixing it up with some other healthy ingredients will give you a an even healthier drink. You can also drink this recipe with a straw if you are concerned about the acidity eroding your tooth enamel.
- Drink morning or evening.
- Can be made into a tea by using warm water.
