Dry Fire Cider Mix

We don't need to save fire cider for any particular occasion to use or prepare it. Here at the farm, we like to use it as a strong and tasty salad dressing and even add it to a marinade for extra flavor. However, having some on hand during the cold and flu season is always a smart idea. 

We like to mix this tonic with other light beverages, but we can just as easily take a neat teaspoon or two a day. If I find it supporting us well, I usually keep up on it more often to bowel tolerance. However, if you're prone to heartburn or have stomach ulcers, it's best to avoid fire cider as it will only exacerbate the issue.
