Dear Friends,

It's Fire Cider Season and, yes, the Fire Cider is flowing!

Fire Cider!

We started making this traditional herbal remedy back in 1999 & it's more popular than ever. We grow our own Cayenne so it's always fresh & spicy. Effective & best-tasting – that's our goal.

Can't wait?  Fire Cider is "just a click away!"

Thank you for your patronage & support!

Best Wishes,
Monica Rude

This is one way to dry cayenne pepper.

Jeanie McLerie - drying cayenne

Cut off the stem, split down to the tip, remove seeds and ribs and let them dry in a sunny window. The rest of the seeds will drop off when dry. This way there is no mold inside. Wash the gloves and scissors in baking soda water. This method is for those who want the flavor without so much heat. For more heat, leave in the seeds. Store in an airtight container in a cool dark place. Use within a year.

Thanks to Jeanie McLerie for the photo.
