"Cariboo" Apple Cider Vinegar helps perk up the flavour of soups and stews and assists in tenderizing meat, either as a marinade or in the cooking liquid. It can be used to acidify liquids by replacing sour milk to activate baking soda in cakes. Try the recipes below to see how our vinegar can be used in salads and drinks. Don't be shy!
