How To Make Apple Cider Detox Juice
- Mix the Ingredients:

- Serve:
- Pour the juice mixture over ice for a chilled, refreshing drink. Enjoy as is or garnish with a cinnamon stick for a festive touch.
The high-quality apple cider vinegar I use has been a game-changer for both taste and benefits. It reminds me of the homemade juices I used to make with my grandmother.
