Fire Cider

 February 28, 2022

I strained the fire cider today that I made in January.  We needed it ready so it didn't get to sit as long as I would like.  I used what I had on hand, cut it up, and put it in a large 64 oz Ball jar.  It sat in my laundry room which stays dark without a window for about 4 weeks.  It was my first time making it and straining so I just poured it out through a strainer into a bowl then poured it back into a quart mason jar and stored it in the fridge.

From what I remember this is what I threw into the jar.

Orange sliced

lemon sliced

Black Peppercorns

Garlic cloves

Ginger

Onion chopped

Jalapeno

After strained add honey to taste.

I should have strained it again through a cheesecloth to remove more sediment.  The family took it but didn't like it very much.
