Brazilian apple cider vinegar
Ever stumbled into the kitchen half-awake, hair looking like a science experiment gone wrong, and thought, “Something’s gotta change”? Yeah, same here. That’s how I met my morning superhero: Brazilian apple cider vinegar.
It didn’t start with me seeking a wellness trend. It began with my jeans not fitting and my energy dipping faster than my toddler’s attention span. That’s when my grandmother whispered an old Brazilian home remedy over our Sunday call—“Try this drink. It works. Trust me.” She’s 82, dances at weddings, and hasn’t had a flu since 2004. I listened.
And let me tell you—this isn’t your average detox fad. This is a vibrant, slightly tangy, gut-hugging, metabolism-boosting elixir with roots in both tradition and function. Let’s make your kitchen feel a little more magical (and your waistband a little roomier).
Why You’ll Love This Brazilian Apple Cider Vinegar Recipe
Let’s face it—we’re all juggling a million things. Work, family, errands, and trying to eat something that isn’t leftover dinosaur nuggets. That’s why this drink is such a winner:
- It’s Quick: 5 minutes, one glass, done.
- It’s Natural: No chemicals, no complicated powders.
- It Works: Hello flatter tummy and steady energy!
Plus, it’s packed with apple cider vinegar, ginger, cinnamon, and a dash of sweetness—making it taste way better than it sounds.

Ingredients You’ll Need
Here’s your new morning ritual in a glass:
2 tbsp apple cider vinegar (with the mother) | Boosts digestion, helps balance blood sugar |
½ tsp fresh grated ginger | Anti-inflammatory, supports gut health |
½ tsp cinnamon powder (or 1 stick) | Balances blood sugar, adds warmth |
Juice of ½ lemon | Alkalizing, adds vitamin C |
1 tsp raw honey (optional) | Natural sweetener with antioxidants |
1½ cups warm water or brewed green tea | Detox base |
¼–½ cup unsweetened cranberry juice (optional) | Detox and urinary support |
½–1 tsp psyllium husk (optional) | Fiber for digestion and satiety |
Step-by-Step: How to Make It
Brew Your Base
If using green tea or yerba mate, brew it first and let it cool slightly. We want warmth, not scald-your-tongue hot.
Flavor Build-Up
Grab a 16oz glass. Mix in grated ginger, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Stir like you’re mixing in joy.
Apple Cider Vinegar Enters the Chat
Add your 2 tbsp of ACV. (Start with 1 tbsp if you’re new to it—it’s zingy!)
Pro Tip: I use this organic brand with the “mother” and love the results.
Optional Sweetness
Honey isn’t necessary, but it helps if ACV punches too hard. Start small and adjust.
Detox Boosters (Optional)
Add cranberry juice and/or psyllium husk if you’re feeling extra. Stir well, but drink immediately after psyllium—it thickens fast!
Sip and Glow
Enjoy warm or over ice. Use a straw to protect those pearly whites from the ACV’s acidity.

Hanna’s Real-Life Tip
I first tried this before a beach vacation (you know, the panic-cleanse phase). But it stuck with me because I felt less bloated, more awake, and—shocking—less snacky. My kids say it smells “like salad dressing,” but hey, it works.
I’ve even made a game of it: drink this before coffee. If I still want coffee, I have it. But some mornings? I just don’t. Crazy, right?
Helpful Tips for Success
- Start slow: Begin with 1 tbsp of ACV and work up.
- Use a straw: It helps protect tooth enamel.
- Drink on an empty stomach: Mornings work best!
- Avoid metal utensils when mixing—ACV doesn’t like them.
- Make it a ritual: Do it the same time daily, and your body will thank you.
