The tonic is 2 teaspoons of good grade apple cider vinegar (Heinz is one) and 2 teaspoons of good natural honey (and make sure it's only from U.S. sources as the combinations from abroad are suspect to us old beekeepers). The best honey is the kind you can obtain from a local keeper. The honey and vinegar are mixed in a glass of cold water and sipped with your meal like a cocktail. It's delicious. >> Thank you so much! I will try it! Yes, the apple cider vinegar plus orange juice gives you a nice slow heart burn. I have not tried mixing it with honey. Thanks again!

Guest guest Posted March 6, 1999 Report Share Posted March 6, 1999 you only got half the recommended tonic. No wonder you got heartburn. The tonic is 2 teaspoons of good grade apple cider vinegar (Heinz is one) and 2 teaspoons of good natural honey (and make sure it's only from U.S. sources as the combinations from abroad are suspect to us old beekeepers). The best honey is the kind you can obtain from a local keeper. The honey and vinegar are mixed in a glass of cold water and sipped with your meal like a cocktail. It's delicious. Here in Vermont a lot of us old folks keep a copy of Folk Medicine by D.C. Jarvis,MD (he was a doctor up Barre way) and is the one who recommends the honey-vinegar cocktail. I believe it's still in print and was published by Holt. An interesting and down to earth book (typical Vermont). CHEERS!!!
