I regularly drink carbonated mineral water, and often mix it with pomegranate juice (POM). This combination is what weaned me off soda. Now I’m going to give apple cider vinegar a try mixed w/ this bubbly water. Nice essay, Maria thank you.

Not really related to your story Maria, but a good tip regardless, double strength cheap vinegar kills weeds quicker and safer than glyphosphate.

Funny you should mention it… I always use cheap vinegar on my patio between the paving slabs to stop the weeds. They do come back, but it takes a while.

I didn’t know about the carbonated water. Will definitely try this.

I always learn something new from you. Thank you!

I tried this yesterday. It’s refreshing, sweet and sour, and tied for first place with my (very strong) ginger ice-cubes+sparkling mineral water. Thanks for this!

Have to say, not mad keen on it myself, though a friend of mine swears by it. I prefer sparkling water with lime and a piece of ginger.

Yes, ginger is so refreshing. But this ACV, wow!

Maybe the diabetic people who drink larger amounts of ACV have lower blood sugar because food is repulsive after chugging ACV?
