Libation Station: Bragg’s Apple Cider Vinegar drink Click it!

vinegar_bragg_appciderI started drinking this apple cider drink with my mom and grandma when my grandma was having issues with leg cramps. My mom read that vinegar could really help with the cramping, so we thought we would give it a try. My grandma’s cramps got better two nights after starting a nightly ritual of drinking this drink. The health benefits of drinking organic apple cider vinegar are fairly obvious and include vitamins and other antioxidants, fiber and minerals. Who hasn’t heard the old saying “An apple a day keeps the doctor away”? The list of folk remedies for drinking apple cider seems endless. The list includes helping leg cramps, aiding in weight loss, helping menstrual cramps, and helping UTIs among other things. And that is just a short list of the benefits of drinking apple cider vinegar. Regardless, I think the drink is pretty tasty and has been a great addition to my pre-bedtime ritual.

Recipe

  • 2 TBSP Bragg’s Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 1 TBSP honey
  • large coffee mug
