Ingredients: Make Your Own Fire Cider
The good news is that you can still make your own Fire Cider. It’s fun, simple, and easy to make. There are hundreds of variations on this recipe. Here’s the original:
½ cup grated fresh horseradish root
½ cup or more fresh chopped onions
¼ cup or more chopped garlic
¼ cup or more grated ginger
Chopped fresh or dried cayenne pepper ‘to taste’. Can be whole or powdered. ‘ To Taste’ means should be hot, but not so hot you can’t tolerate it. Better to make it a little milder than to hot; you can always add more pepper later if necessary. Optional ingredients; Turmeric, Echinacea, cinnamon, etc.
