It's That Time of Year Again

There has been a nasty cold going around the Berkshires, and one by one it has taken us out. First Dan, then Sean, Amy, and Dana. I blame Dan's kids for being cute but efficient plague carriers. Anyway, we've been hitting the amped up virgin Fire Cider hot toddys pretty hard over the last week- and I'm happy to say we've been feeling much better! Ingredients: -1 -2 Tablespoons of Fire Cider -Juice of 1/4 - 1/2 lemon -1 T honey, raw, local honey is best. -A healthy dose of ginger (We use 1T frozen ginger juice. A 1/2 tsp ginger powder or 1T diced fresh ginger works too) -Hot water or tea to fill your favorite mug [caption id="attachment_764" align="aligncenter" width="538"]Warming and soothing.

IMG_20141021_103104   This Sunday is the last SoWa Market in Boston for the season so make sure to stop by and see Sean for your free Fire Cider sample!  He'll also be handing out samples on Friday, 10/24 at Foster's Supermarket in Greenfield, MA, 3-6 pm  and on Saturday, 10/25 at the Fruit Center Marketplace in Hingham, MA 11 am-4 pm IMG_20141023_114120 Cheers!
