As autumn settles in and we begin preparing for the colder months, it’s the perfect time to make one of our favorite traditional herbal preparations: Fire Cider. Join us for a NEW hands-on evening where you’ll learn about this spicy, flavorful herbal vinegar and create a blend that is completely your own.
We’ll begin by exploring what Fire Cider is, the history and tradition behind this beloved herbal preparation, and the many herbs, spices, fruits, and other ingredients that can be used to create it. You’ll learn how different ingredients contribute their own flavor, aroma, and traditional herbal qualities, giving you the confidence to begin creating your own combinations at home.
Then it’s time to build your own Fire Cider! Our Fire Cider Bar will be stocked with a variety of seasonal ingredients for you to mix and match. Choose the herbs, spices, roots, fruits, and other botanicals that speak to you and create a personalized blend with flavors ranging from fiery and spicy to bright, citrusy, earthy, and aromatic.
Before creating your own, you’ll get to experience just how different Fire Ciders can be with a tasting flight of 3–4 varieties made with different combinations of herbs and ingredients. You’ll taste, compare, and gather inspiration before heading to the Fire Cider Bar to create your own unique blend.
Whether you’re new to herbalism or already have a home apothecary, this is a fun and flavorful way to learn how to work with herbs while creating a traditional autumn preparation to enjoy throughout the season.
Come ready to taste, experiment, and get a little spicy!
