Fire Cider 200 ml

Wild Dispensary Fire Cider

Wild Dispensary’s Fire Cider is a spicy, pungent, immune boosting, apple cider vinegar-based tonic. It has a kick!

Our Fire Cider is inspired by Rosemary Gladstar’s 1970s recipe which she adapted from an old European gypsy formula. To add an Aotearoa/New Zealand signature we have infused our Fire Cider recipe with wild-crafted New Zealand medicinal herbs. Fire Cider is a powerful, enlivening tonic which can be used to help promote healthy gut bacteria - a natural probiotic. What makes Fire Cider so effective?

• Horseradish - the star of the tonic. Traditionally used for its antibacterial properties
• Cayenne pepper -adds heat and accelerates your metabolism
• Ginger -traditionally used to aid digestion and provide warmth
• Turmeric - well-known as an anti-inflammatory
• Garlic, onion, thyme, rosemary, oregano, parsley and bay leaves – all traditionally used as antioxidants
• Usnea - traditionally used for upper respiratory and lung infection
• Kawakawa - traditionally used by Māori to support the body when under stress
