Let the fire begin! This is really Cold and ‘flu prevention.

Let’s make fire cider / master tonic

What do we need:

• Gloves and well-ventilated space recommended … the aroma … very strong and may stimulate sinuses instantly.
• Chopped and grated fresh hot peppers, onions, garlic, ginger, horseradish and turmeric root.
• Here is a starting point for Fire Cider / Master Tonic …
• 1/4 cup finely chopped garlic
• 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
• 2 hot fresh chillies – careful with cleaning, wear gloves!!!
• 1/4 cup grated ginger
• 2 pieces of cut turmeric
• 2 tablespoons grated horseradish (gloves, well ventilated space and maybe a facemask)
• 700 ml apple cider vinegar – with the mother.

How to do it:

1. Combine in bowl.
2. Transfer to Fido jar.
3. Pour in apple cider vinegar (made with love is always best / buy organic with the mother).
4. Close and shake.
5. Keep in a cool, dry place 2 weeks.
6. Shake several times a day.(optional – don’t worry if you forget!)
7. After 14 days squeeze and strain.

• Place a piece of muslin in strainer.
• Use the dry mixture in cooking or dressings, salsa, dips, etc.
• Fire cider is ready for use. It does not require refrigeration.
• Start with 1 tablespoon daily to strengthen immune system and fight the dreaded lurgy.
• Gargle and swallow. It is best not to dilute.
• Increase the amount every day until size of a small shot /liquor glass. If struggling with more serious infection/ illness, try 1 tablespoon of the tonic 5-6 times per day. Use smaller doses for children.

Tips … eat a slice of lemon /lime after tonic to ease the heat.

The tonic also makes a tasty salad dressing mixed with quality oil.

Or, add a dash to brines, soups, casseroles, raw chocolate etc.

Very sparingly!!!

Love and bacteria, xo Lynnie
