Raw and Unfiltered: Apple Cider Vinegar
The Benefits of Raw, Unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar in Our Fire Ciders and Earth Cider
At the heart of all our Fire Ciders and Earth Cider is one key ingredient: apple cider vinegar (ACV). But we don't just use any ACV—we exclusively use raw, unfiltered apple cider vinegar with the “mother” to ensure maximum health benefits. Here’s why this matters.
Why We Choose Raw, Unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar
Unlike pasteurized vinegar, which is heated to kill off unwanted microorganisms, our raw ACV retains all the beneficial bacteria and yeast that naturally occur during fermentation. Pasteurization may make food “safe,” but it also makes it less alive, stripping out the good microorganisms along with the bad. We also skip the fine filtration process to preserve these beneficial microorganisms, which are crucial for promoting digestive and immune health.
What Is the “Mother” in Apple Cider Vinegar?
The “mother” is the visible film of beneficial bacteria and yeast that forms during fermentation. If you spot a white layer on top of your ACV, that’s the mother—evidence that your vinegar is alive and packed with potential health benefits. This natural combination of enzymes and probiotics is one of the main reasons raw ACV is so prized in wellness routines.
Is Raw Apple Cider Vinegar Safe?
Absolutely! Despite being raw, our apple cider vinegar is completely safe to consume. Its natural acidity acts as a preservative, keeping it shelf-stable without the need for pasteurization or other processing methods.
Why Organic Matters
We only use organic apple cider vinegar in our wellness tonics. Apples are one of the “Dirty Dozen”—fruits and vegetables that retain high levels of pesticides. By choosing organic, we ensure that our ACV is not only better for you but also free from harmful chemicals.
By prioritizing raw, unfiltered, and organic apple cider vinegar with the mother, we ensure that every bottle of our Fire Ciders and Earth Cider delivers the highest quality and benefits you expect.
Enjoy our products knowing they are made with the best possible apple cider vinegar we can get our hands on.
