Fire Cider Oxymel: A Bold Botanical Tonic for Everyday Wellness 🌿🔥

At Beloved Bijou Adornments & Apothecary, we celebrate rituals that nourish both body and spirit. In a world that moves quickly and seasons change fast, sometimes all we want is something simple, fiery, and supportive — something that feels like a hug in a bottle.

Enter: Fire Cider Oxymel — a classic herbal tonic with a modern twist. This boldly flavored elixir isn’t just delicious; it’s rooted in centuries of herbal tradition and crafted with intention for your seasonal wellness rituals.

🌿 What Is Fire Cider Oxymel?

Fire Cider Oxymel is a traditional herbal concoction made by infusing powerful botanicals in raw apple cider vinegar and finishing it with a touch of raw honey. The result is a vibrant, tangy, and warming tonic that awakens the senses and invites you to sip with purpose.

The word oxymel comes from the Greek words “oxos” (vinegar) and “meli” (honey) — a combination that beautifully balances tart and sweet, fire and smooth.

🔥 Handcrafted Ingredients + Their Herbal Stories

Every ingredient in our Fire Cider Oxymel was chosen with care, based on traditional herbal wisdom passed down through generations:

🫚 Ginger + Turmeric

These two golden roots bring warming, earthy notes and are cherished in herbal communities for their vibrant, comforting profiles.

Organic Ginger & Turmeric both contain small amounts of Vitamin C and B6, but their real power comes from Gingerol and Curcumin. These compounds act as "vitamin-sparing" antioxidants, protecting your cells from oxidative stress.

🧂By adding Black Pepper to our blend for the Turmeric, the piperine in black pepper increases the absorption of its active compounds by up to 2,000%.

🧅Organic Onion

Onions contain Vitamins C and B6, and Folate.  It also contains Quercetin, a flavonoid that works with Vitamin C to reduce inflammation.

🫚 Horseradish Root

Horseradish contains Vitamin C, and Folate.  It is known for glucosinolates, which assist the liver in detoxification.

A pungent, spirited root that awakens the senses and adds bright, peppery undertones to the blend.

🌿 Thyme 

Thyme Leaves contains Vitamins C, A, and K. It is one of the highest herb sources of Vitamin C and Vitamin K (for bone/blood health).

🍯 Raw Apple Cider Vinegar + Raw Honey

Raw Honey contains trace amounts of B vitamins and Vitamin C, but is primarily prized for its enzymes and antimicrobial properties.

Apple cider vinegar provides an herbal extraction base rich in character, while raw honey brings gentle sweetness and depth — balancing the heat with smoothness. It also contains small amounts of Potassium and Magnesium. If it contains "The Mother," it also provides beneficial bacteria and enzymes.

🫚 Osha Root

Osha Root contains unique oils and Z-ligustilide and phellandrene, which contribute to its expectorant, decongestant, and antimicrobial properties, helping to clear lungs by loosening mucus and soothing airways.. While not a primary vitamin source, it is historically used for respiratory support and contains minerals drawn from high-altitude soils. 

Osha, or Bear Root, is a warming herb traditionally associated with winter wellness practices in the Southwest and Rocky Mountain regions. Because it grows slowly and has been overharvested, many herbalists emphasize ethical sourcing and mindful use when honoring this respected plant.
