For years, there has been a ton of beverages or \u201cdetox\u201d drinks including apple cider vinegar. Hearing of all the amazing things about ACV (apple cider vinager) I kept trying them\u2026however, they often left my <!--more-->tummy feeling a little funny or it was hard to gulp down.<\/p>\n<p>Then I tried the <a title=\"Trim Healthy Mama\" href=\"http:\/\/www.trimhealthymama.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Trim Healthy Mama<\/a> recipe called Good Girl Moonshine. I don\u2019t know what it is about it, but I actually like it. To me, it\u2019s like a healthy ginger pop (or soda, for you Americans).<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a lot of things going for ACV, but here are some of the main reasons I think it\u2019s a superfood:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Raises metabolism (+appetite suppressant = weight loss)<\/li>\n<li>Decrease glucose levels (amazing!)<\/li>\n<li>Lowers cholesterol and high blood pressure<\/li>\n<li>Aids in digestion<\/li>\n<li>Boosts energy levels<\/li>\n<li>Detoxifies the body<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-5314\" alt=\"THM Good GIirl Moonshine Recipe\" src=\"https:\/\/www.colourfulpalate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/THM-Good-GIirl-Moonshine-Recipe-510x434.jpg\" width=\"510\" height=\"434\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.colourfulpalate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/THM-Good-GIirl-Moonshine-Recipe-510x434.jpg 510w, https:\/\/www.colourfulpalate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/THM-Good-GIirl-Moonshine-Recipe-1024x872.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.colourfulpalate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/THM-Good-GIirl-Moonshine-Recipe.jpg 1267w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 510px) 100vw, 510px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s the original recipe from Trim Healthy Mama (posted with permission)\u2026<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"recipeTitle\">Good Girl Moonshine from THM (original recipe)<\/h2>\n<ol class=\"recipe\">\n<li>12 ounce glass of ice water<\/li>\n<li>1-2 Tablespoons of Apple Cider Vinegar<\/li>\n<li>Ginger, fresh or powdered (I usually just chop up a knob of ginger and pop it in the glass\u2026more like an infusion)<\/li>\n<li>Stevia to taste<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>It\u2019s basically a skeleton recipe to get creative with.

They say 1 tsp of this stuff is equal to 1-1\/2 cups of sugar! Whaaaa! That being the case, I used the tiniest sprinkle of this in my beverage. It\u2019s potent.

I also use the flavoured stevia syrups in this too for a new twist (the <a title=\"Cherry Vanilla Stevia\" href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/1prRnwi\" target=\"_blank\">cherry vanilla<\/a>, orange, and <a title=\"Lemon Stevia by NuNaturals\" href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/1mzkjxw\" target=\"_blank\">lemon<\/a> are delicious in it!).<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-5311\" alt=\"How to Break Free of Drinking Soda Pop\" src=\"https:\/\/www.colourfulpalate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/How-to-Break-Free-of-Drinking-Soda-Pop-510x347.jpg\" width=\"510\" height=\"347\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.colourfulpalate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/How-to-Break-Free-of-Drinking-Soda-Pop-510x347.jpg 510w, https:\/\/www.colourfulpalate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/How-to-Break-Free-of-Drinking-Soda-Pop-1024x696.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.colourfulpalate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/How-to-Break-Free-of-Drinking-Soda-Pop.jpg 1587w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 510px) 100vw, 510px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>When you use sparkling water it turns this drink into something entirely different!
