Ingredients

1 inch piece fresh ginger root

1 heaping tablespoon fennel seeds

1 heaping tablespoon peppermint leaves (or loose peppermint tea)

1 cup raw apple cider vinegar

Directions

Roughly chop the ginger root. Put it in the blender with the fennel seeds, peppermint and vinegar. Blend thoroughly. Pour mixture into a clean glass jar with an airtight lid. Seal jar, wrap in a dark towel or cloth and store in a dark, cool cupboard for 2 weeks.

Strain liquid through a cheesecloth or fine mesh strainer and store the tincture in dark amber bottles with dropper lids, or any dark glass bottle with tight sealing top. Dropper tops are great for ease of use.

Use 1 teaspoon in a 1/4 cup of water before each meal, sipped slowly. You can also take this tonic between meals if you're feeling gassy, followed by a glass of water.

Note - If you can't wait two weeks for this use my Heartburn Cure Tea which is also excellent in aiding digestion. Drink it 20 minutes before meals.

Okay, you ladies didn't even tell me that I described this recipe as alleviating "boating" and gas! Well I wouldn't want to alleviate any boating (if I ever got to do it) but at the prices it is these days, I would sure like to alleviate the gas!
