BONUS: it’s killer as a tuna melt.

I celebrated 12 years of being of sober at the beginning of May. It’s not something I share often, but this is the deeper why to my mocktails and the reason that I create them. Sobriety gives me the clarity to tune into myself in order to create. If you are part of my community on Instagram, you know that I make fancy mocktails.
However, what I drink regularly is a simple mocktail made with apple cider vinegar, a dropper full of Belly Love tincture from Anima Mundi, a dash of orange bitters, and I top it with seltzer. If you like the tartness of apple cider vinegar, you will love this! Try the Weekday Mocktail
