"apple cider vinegar" health drink :)

Wow!  We've been so busy lately that I haven't posted in a while.

About to write out this wonderful recipe for a friend and then thought it best to share here... it's so much easier to reference in cyberspace... LOL! :)

We moved into this old building four years ago and I suddenly developed asthma???  Yes, I suspect it's the old heating mechanisms that are host to 60 yr old grime and dust... also this 16 story building has air vents that were recently cleaned (so I'm sure they also hosted unhealthy stuff).

We have two large air purifiers and I still needed Advair and Singulair to cope with my breathing problems.  Not sure how I stumbled across "apple cider vinegar" but we started drinking it and I no longer need my asthma meds... woohoo!

The PH balance of our bodies can affect how we feel and how we deal with many diseases.  Just look up the many startling benefits of "apple cider vinegar"... really impressive!

So, since I am a Dasani water addict... my recipe includes this type of bottled water... you can use whatever water you choose... just remember the better the ingredients, the better the drink :)

A neighbor in our building sells her sister's fresh honey... again, use the best you can find... raw, natural honey is best!

Bragg Apple Cider Vinegar is the original manufacturer of "with the mother" raw, unfiltered, organic apple cider vinegar... this is the only type we've used :)

Mix equal parts honey and apple cider vinegar... if you want it weaker or stronger, just adjust the amount of water.

2/3 cup Bragg Apple Cider Vinegar
2/3 raw natural honey
5 bottles Dasani water (16.9 oz)
****Mix together in a large pitcher and enjoy! 

Since we both try to drink this twice a day, I like to make several pitchers at a time...

You can see that our fridge is also filled with prepared bottles... makes it easy to grab and go!

Enjoy!  May you also experience the benefits of this healthy drink :)
