The Switchel is an old timey, electrolyte-boosting energy drink.

Before the days of Gatorade and other electrolyte–boosting beverages, the Switchel was often the preferred option. Enjoy hot or cold for a refreshing rev-up!

  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • Molasses or thin-sliced ginger root, to taste
  • Apple slice, for garnish (optional)

Preparation

Pour water into mug, then mix in apple cider vinegar, maple syrup, and honey. Stir in molasses or thin-sliced ginger to taste, then garnish with apple slice (if desired) and serve.
