This homemade version of expensive tincture formulas sold in natural food stores has quite a kick! It stimulates circulation and really stands up to an assault on the immune system.
Yield: 8 servings
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1-2 cloves garlic (optional)
1/4 cup finely shredded ginger
2 tsp wasabi powder, or to taste
1 tsp cayenne pepper, or to taste
2-4 Tbs raw honey
In a blender, combine the vinegar, garlic (if desired), and ginger and blend until smooth. Pour through a fine strainer and press with the back of a spoon to extract as much juice as possible. Discard pulp.
Whisk in the wasabi, cayenne, and honey.
Store in a glass jar in the refrigerator. Serve 2 tablespoons at a time on an empty stomach. Add to 1 cup hot water for a warming tonic.
