A: Once a day is safe for most people. If you have acid reflux or kidney concerns, check with your doctor first.

Q: Can kids drink it?

A: For little ones, skip the vinegar and stick with lemon-ginger tea instead.

A: Totally! They add visual flair but aren’t needed for health benefits.

A: It may help curb cravings and support metabolism—but it’s not a magic fix. Pair it with healthy habits.

1 Tbsp raw apple cider vinegar (with the “mother”)
Juice of ½ lemon (≈ 1 Tbsp)
½ tsp fresh grated ginger
¼ tsp dried butterfly-pea flowers (optional, for color magic)
1 tsp honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
1 cup water (room-temperature for easy sipping, or warm for a cozy alternative)
Ice cubes, mint sprig, or lemon wheel for garnish (optional)

Steep (optional): In a small heat-proof bowl, steep ¼ tsp butterfly-pea flowers in 2–3 Tbsp hot water for 5–7 minutes. Strain; set aside.
Mix the base: In a glass or mug, combine apple cider vinegar, fresh lemon juice, grated ginger, and honey/maple syrup (if using).
Add water: Pour in 1 cup room-temperature or warm water; whisk or stir until fully blended.
Color shift: Gently swirl in the strained butterfly-pea concentrate and watch the drink turn from blue to purple.
Serve:
- Hot: Sip immediately like a soothing tea.
- Cold: Pour over ice, garnish with mint or a lemon wheel, and enjoy a refreshing mocktail.

Scale it: Multiply ingredients by guest count and serve in a pitcher for brunch “mocktail moments.”
Dial it down: New to ACV? Start with ½ Tbsp and build up.
Less heat: Sensitive to ginger? Use ¼ tsp or finely mince instead of grating.
To-go prep: Mix vinegar, lemon, and ginger in a jar up to 24 hours ahead; add water and butterfly tea just before drinking.
Protect your enamel: Sip with a straw and rinse your mouth afterward—ACV is acidic.
