RE: Folk Medicine: Fire Cider Herbal Tonic
"at 87 years old, she will climb down into a ditch to collect sour leaf (sorrel) for her favourite soup"
I love her and I hope I will be like her :)
I think I can do this, but not with such hand gathered ingredients. I have the acv, garlic, onions, and ginger as well as turmeric root. I will use lime instead of lemon. My biggest problem would be the honey that they filter here in SE Asia. I have not found any non-filtered I could afford.
Thank you for the recipe and for keeping the old ways alive. We need to do this :)
She really is a determined woman. I too hope that I will be like her when I age. The honey sweetens it but I don't always used honey in mine. It is perfectly good without. I like to add a table spoon of honey free fire cider to a glass of water to make a healthy drink. If you have access to pure maple syrup that is also healthy/beneficial.
