Description by publisher:

For more than 30 years, best-selling author and popular herbalist Rosemary Gladstar has been touting the health benefits of fire cider — a spicy blend of apple cider vinegar, onion, ginger, horseradish, garlic, and other immune-boosting herbs. Her original recipe, inspired by traditional cider vinegar remedies, has given rise to dozens of fire cider formulations created by fans of the tonic who use it to address everyday ills, from colds and flu to leg cramps and hangovers.

Fire Cider! is a lively collection of 101 recipes contributed by more than 70 herbal enthusiasts, with energizing versions ranging from Black Currant Fire Cider to Triple Goddess Vinegar, Fire Cider Dark Moonshine, and Bloody Mary Fire Cider. Colorful asides, including tribute songs and amusing anecdotes, capture Gladstar’s passionate desire to pass along the fire cider tradition.

Fun graphics and great information are the stars of this book. A collection of 101 recipes, as well as various uses for apple cider vinegar, history, folk wisdom and more.

Although published under only one author, this book is rather a work of a community that shared their recipes to make this book possible. Each recipe includes a short bio, that gives credit to the author or keeper of that recipe. (I say, keeper because many times these recipes are actually authored by family members, like the proverbial grandma’s secret recipe)

A very informative book that goes beyond listing recipes. With fun graphics and an energetic writing style, this book is a wonderful resource for any kitchen or collector’s library.

It even includes a legal battle over the trademark of the name Fire Cider. Now a part of the colorful story of cider.
