What is an aperitif?
An aperitif is a drink taken before meals with the intention of stimulating the appetite and supporting digestion and detoxification. They are dry, sometimes tart, delightfully bitter, and served cold. Inspired by the flavours of these traditional aperitifs Pyewackets Flora Cider is a non-alcoholic version blended by our naturopath to bring digestive function to the front.
How to use it
Pour 1 to 2 tablespoons of Flora Cider in a glass of cold sparkling water with ice. Enjoy before or after meals, or any time you need an elegant digestive boost. It can also be enjoyed in still water, room temperature or hot water - see what works best for you.
The age old practice of potentising and preserving herbs in vinegar is what our tonics are all about - see our other slow brewed tonics here.
