This apple cider vinegar shot recipe comes after several reader requests. Our refreshing lemon Apple Cider Vinegar Drink recipe (with over 250 5-star reviews) and infused Detox Water Recipes are some of the most popular here. And there’s a warm and cozy Hot Apple Cider ACV Drink Recipe too. 

You may have noticed apple cider vinegar shots from brands like ethan’s on shelves in the refrigerated supplement section of grocery stores. Pressed Juicery even carries a Bragg ACV shot. We have other wellness shot recipes here too, and you may want to also check out our Cranberry Detox Drink, Ginger Shots (great for the immune system and digestion) and Turmeric Shots (great for inflammation).  

With a little help from our friends over at Bragg’s, we’ve learned all about apple cider vinegar shot benefits and how exactly to consume them (spoiler, it’s not as a shot). Keep reading for all the details and an actually tasty apple cider vinegar shot recipe. 

Benefits

According to Bragg, organic AVC “with the mother” may have the following benefits. 

• Supports a healthy immune system. 
• Contains prebiotics that support gut health. 
• Helps regulate blood sugar levels. 

Helps maintain a healthy weight (when consumed at 30ml per day, split into two servings). 

Ingredients

You’ll need just a few ingredients for your homemade wellness shots.

• Organic Apple Cider Vinegar with “the mother.”
• Fresh juice. 
• Fresh ginger, which is great for digestion and immune support. 

How to Drink Apple Cider Vinegar Shots

If you’ve seen apple cider vinegar shots with the other wellness shots in juice shops and grocery stores and though you should drink it as-is, you’re not alone. I had assumed they should be consumed as shots until I noticed this Instagram post from Bragg Live Food Products. Bragg gave me permission to share this graphic, as it’s important information to have when using these shots. While the commercial shots and this recipe do dilute the ACV with juice, it’s only 1-2 ounces. 

I now think of apple cider vinegar shots and concentrates that are great to make in individual portions and refrigerate. Before drinking I add the shot to a cup of sparkling or still water.

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup unsweetened pineapple or fresh orange juice
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (Bragg's)
• 1/8-1/4 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
• 8 oz. still or sparkling water

Instructions

1. Combine pineapple or orange juice, apple cider vinegar, and ginger in a small jar. Shake or whisk to combine. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use, up to 2-3 days.
2. When ready to drink your shot, combine with 8 oz. sparkling or still water.

Notes

Combining 1 tablespoon of ACV with 8 oz. water is recommended, as drinking it as a shot may be too harsh on tooth enamel, esophagus, and stomach.

While this recipe makes one shot, I usually make several at a time and refrigerate for later.

I recommend taking 1-2 shots per day. Bragg's recommends 30 ml ACV per day for healthy weight maintenance (2 shots).

• Immune system support
