Celebrate the New Year with a Healthy Mocktail

sparkling apple cider vinegar tonic

Like so many, I always tend to start the new year with a health kick—a new gym, yoga, immunity shots, essential oils. I’ve tried it all. This year, instead of suddenly signing up for a gym membership, I’m opting for a healthy mocktail. So, kick off the new year (and dry January, if that’s your thing!) with this healthy sparkling apple cider vinegar tonic. Inspired by alwaysusebutter.com.

  • ¾ cup cold water
  • 1 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar
  • ½ lemon, juice only
  • ½ tsp. ground turmeric
  • 1 dash cayenne pepper
  • soda water
  • ice

Add cold water, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, turmeric, cayenne pepper and ice to a shaker. Shake well, and pour into a low-ball glass. Top with soda water, and decorate with a lemon slice.
