Anti-Toxin Apple Cider Vinegar Morning Shot
A small morning shot of apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, and a touch of honey, stirred into warm water.

This is a one-glass, one-minute ritual — stir the ingredients together and drink it down before you've had a chance to overthink it.
Apple cider vinegar shots like this one are a familiar part of detox and cleanse routines, often taken first thing in the morning on an empty stomach. The lemon juice adds vitamin C and brightness, while a touch of raw honey and cinnamon soften the sharp vinegar flavor.
Drink it quickly, then follow with a glass of plain water if the tartness lingers.
Some people prefer to drink it through a straw to protect their teeth from the vinegar's acidity, and rinsing with plain water afterward is a good habit either way. This is meant to be a small daily ritual, not a large serving.
