Herbal minded friends!

Now is a great time to put up your fire cider for the fall sniffles season. What is fire cider you ask?

It's a traditional recipe that is used to support and boost the immune system. Here's a decent blog post: https://blog.mountainroseherbs.com/fire-cider

Like most folk remedies its very malleable. So use what you have! If you have questions about substitutions I can try and answer.

I won a 6pack of Hany's products for completing a survey for them. I didn't expect to get anything. I just did it to be helpful to a small company who's products I like. Looking forward to trying the products that aren't Carolina Reaper fire cider. I buy that by the gallon. They asked if they could have my "IG handle", but I don't use Meta stuff. I told them I'd make a post on Mastodon, so y'all can consider this spam, but it's a company I patronize and believe in

Fire cider has fermented 6 weeks. Usually only ferments 4 weeks, but I was away, and then ill. Decanted today. #FireCider #probiotics
Here is the finished product, fermented just over 4 weeks. #firecider #fermentation #probiotics

I made my first fire cider. It is a tonic you take a spoon of a day in the cold months or if your system feels sluggish.

You soak herbs in apple cider vinegar for a month, then strain the herbs out.

Finally had the energy to start a batch of firecider. Fermenting at about 64ยฐF for four weeks. #Fermenting #FireCider #probiotics

The fire cider is ready now. For this batch I put into a half gallon jar: sliced ginger root, garlic, onion, rose hips, dried elderberries, and a couple of cayenne peppers. (the ginger and rose hips were bought organic) All else is from the garden. To these ingredients I added apple cider vinegar to the top of the jar. Let it sit for 2 months shaking jar as I thought of it. Then strained it out and added a glob of honey from my hives. This is good as a shot once a day, or use with olive oil as a salad dressing.

What happened to this year's horseradish crop? None to be found in local stores and can't see making a new batch of fire cider without horseradish. #horseradish #fermentation #FireCider
Fire cider is ready. In case you missed this 4 weeks ago, it is fermented with all of the good stuff: unfiltered cider vinegar, onion, garlic, hot pepper, ginger, turmeric, orange, lemon to which some honey is added after it is decanted at 4 weeks of age. Here's to health and happiness. #firecider #probiotics
