🌿 Why It’s Good for You
1. Gut Support:
The combination of cinnamon, cloves, and ginger helps calm digestion and reduce bloating while naturally supporting healthy gut motility.
2. Liver Love:
Citrus and apple polyphenols encourage gentle liver detoxification, helping your body process and clear toxins more efficiently.
3. Immune Boost:
Star anise — the little star-shaped spice floating on top — doesn’t just look beautiful. It contains shikimic acid, a compound known for its flu-protective properties.
🩵 Balanced Blood Sugar Tip
This cider is naturally sweet thanks to apples and oranges — no added sugar needed! To keep your blood sugar stable, pair it with a side of protein, like a handful of nuts or cheese cubes. This simple pairing slows the absorption of natural sugars and keeps your energy balanced.
🍋 Serving Tip
Top your warm mug with a star anise and a squeeze of fresh lemon for the perfect finishing touch. The lemon adds a bright note and an extra boost of liver-loving vitamin C.
✨ Final Sip
This Gut + Liver Support Apple Cider is comfort with purpose — soothing, nourishing, and beautifully seasonal. Whether you’re curled up on the couch, sharing it with friends, or sipping after a crisp fall walk, you’ll know each ingredient is working with your body, not against it. 💙
