Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 1/2 cup chopped garlic
  • 1/4 cup grated fresh ginger
  • 1/4 cup grated horseradish root
  • 1/4 cup grated fresh turmeric root or 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon ground dried turmeric
  • Cayenne pepper (I use half a medium fresh pepper or 1⁄4 teaspoon ground dried cayenne)
  • Raw apple cider vinegar
  • 2-4 tbsp raw honey

Instructions
 

  • Combine the onion, garlic, ginger, horseradish, turmeric, and cayenne to taste in a glass jar. Add enough vinegar to completely cover all the ingredients.
  • Cover the jar. Vinegar erodes metal, so use a plastic, glass, or cork lid when making infused vinegars, or put a piece of waxed paper between the lid and the liquid.
  • Set the mixture aside to steep in a cool, dark place for 4 weeks.
  • Strain out the herbs using a fine-mesh strainer or fine cheesecloth or cotton muslin.
  • Sweeten with honey to taste, shaking or stirring well to dissolve. Store at room temperature; it will keep for up to a year.
