I wanted to post this here so I can find it to keep it updated, and track our progress :-)
Hang on shorty...this might be a fast trip!
Bought the ingredients to make up a batch of "Master Tonic". Says it's some pretty good stuff so we're gonna try it. Recipe:
1 32oz bottle of apple cider vinegar (Braggs ACV recommended)
1/4 cup garlic
1/4 cup onions
2 of the hottest peppers you can find ...WEAR GLOVES!
1/4 cup ginger
2 tablespoons of grated horseradish
2 tablespoons of Tumeric root (chunks) (I couldn't find, so will use the powdered kind)
Blend all ingredients except apple cider vinegar, together in a bowl
Fill canning jar 2/3 full of mixture, and fill rest with apple cider vinegar
Close tightly and shake.
Keep jar(s) in a cool dry place for 2 weeks, shaking several times every day
After 14 days, strain though a strainer first, then again through cheesecloth
The tonic is now ready for use ... no need to refrigerate
Start slowly, the tonic is VERY strong and hot
Gargle a 1 tablespoon full & swallow every day
eat a slice of orange, lemon or lime to ease the burning
Increase the amount every day until you can tolerate a "shot" glass every day.
