30ml high quality apple cider vinegar
30ml water
2 tablespoons honey
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
Method
Place all the ingredients in a small sterilised jar and shake to combine.
We advise using a 1/4 teaspoon measuring spoon rather than estimating the cayenne pepper and ginger.
Shake well each time, before using. The spices will not dissolve into the liquid. It will not be a thick syrup, it should remain watery.

We advise making small and frequent quantities as required.
