Our Coconut Vinegar with the Mother of Vinegar is full of naturally fermented goodness.  One way to ingest this goodness (in its raw state) is to add it to sparkling water, for a homemade shrub, or drinking vinegar.  Filipinos have traditionally served this as a natural energy drink and are aware of its natural properties. It’s great for gut health, as it contains live Mother of Vinegar Gel and trace amino acids from the raw coconut sap. Don’t use too much vinegar, as it can be harsh on an empty stomach.  Best taken as a drink with food.  Below is a simple recipe for a sparkling coconut and lime drink for two.
