Spicy Cider

Raw materials

• 2 tablespoons fresh ginger

• 2 tablespoons fresh turmeric

• 1 lemon

• 1 orange

• 3-5 cinnamon sticks

• 1 tablespoon black pepper

• 1 head of garlic

• 32 oz apple cider vinegar

• Honey or coconut nectar, to taste (optional)

1. Peel and slice the ginger and turmeric. Lemon and orange slices. Mash and peel the garlic.
2. Add all ingredients to a large pitcher or bowl. Pour over the apple cider vinegar. Cover the pitcher or bowl (do not use a metal lid as it will corrode with vinegar).
3. Put the container in a dry, dark place and let it ferment for 2-4 weeks.
4. After the fermentation process is complete, strain the liquid and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. You can add a little honey or other unrefined sweetener to the mixture before serving. Give it a try, dilute it with water or juice, or pour it over food.
5. Tip: It is important to clean the cider container thoroughly before use to avoid the growth of harmful bacteria during the fermentation process.
