Fire Cider Recipe By Larissa Spafford of www. bendnutritionaltherapy. com

This recipe shared by Emily Good, NTP. This potent food based tincture is a decongestant, anti-microbial and warming. A tablespoon a day in winter keeps the immune system healthy to ward off sickness. Drink a shot glass full when you are feeling rundown.
Ingredients:
 1 / 2 cup peeled and grated( or diced) fresh horseradish 
 1 medium onion, any color, grated or diced 
 10-15 large cloves of peeled and diced fresh garlic 
 1 / 4 cup peeled and grated( or diced) fresh ginger 
 1 / 4 cup peeled and grated( or diced) fresh turmeric 
 1 lemon, quartered and sliced crosswise 
 1-2 fresh jalapeno chiles, sliced( remove seeds, or omit completely, if you are sensitive to spicy foods. btw, you can use any of your favorite hot peppers.)
 1-2 tsp cayenne pepper( adjust to tastes)
 2-3 sprigs of fresh rosemary 
 enough raw, unfiltered apple cider vinegar to fully cover your mixture by 1-inch 
 1 / 4 cup raw honey
Optional Ingredients:
 1 orange quartered, fresh parsley, fresh thyme, fresh oregano, peppercorns lightly crushed.
First sterilize a quart size jar by placing it in a large empty pot. Cover with water, bring to a boil for 15 minutes. Next, place all ingredients except honey into jar, pour over apple cider vinegar until it covers ingredients by 1-inch. Seal jar well and give it a good shake or two. Keep in a dark, cool place. Shake daily to every other day. After 3-4 weeks, strain into a big bowl, pressing gently to get all the“ good stuff”. Then, add honey. Stir fire cider until honey has dissolved. Keep the fire cider in glass jars with plastic( or rubber sealed) lids. Store in a cool dark place or in the refrigerator. Will keep for several months. Makes a delicious salad dressing when mixed w / 2-3 parts olive oil, 1-2 tsp mustard, 1-2 cloves of crushed garlic, salt, pepper.
