Fire Cider

After watching his wife, Amy struggle with her health throughout the cold Berkshire winters, Dana St. Pierre offered her his Fire Cider tonic, based on a home remedy his grandmother, Elisabet, a feisty German farm girl and unabashed inventor of kitchen concoctions, used to make to help keep her family hale and hearty.

He took one of her recipes, a mash-up of onions, garlic, and honey that she steeped in mason jars on a sunny windowsill and gave it a modern makeover with spicy-sweet flavors. A country doctor suggested Dana add apple cider vinegar for its wealth of health-enhancing properties, and, over the course of a decade, he refined his recipe into the original Fire Cider tonic.

Amy, who'd noticed a profound effect on her overall well-being and energy levels since using Fire Cider, suggested they make a batch for the 2010 Shire City Sanctuary Shindy, a Berkshires-based holiday artisan festival. By the end of the festival, they had sold out. Together they created a company dedicated to making customers' lives a little healthier and more exciting, one flavorful sip at a time.
