To your health!



I had to look high and low for this stuff (first seen on the blue hour,) but I'm so happy I persisted. It's become my new drink. Moscatel Vinegar (aka Muscat or Moscato vinegar,) sparkling water and ice.

Use as much vinegar as you like. I think I like mine a little more sharp (more vinegar-y) than others. It's tangy and refreshing. Perfect for sipping while sitting or weeding or watching chickens. Good indoors and even better out!

I finally found the vinegar at Pastaworks' northwest Portland shop, City Market. When I called ahead the woman who answered, Katie, knew right away what I was looking for. In fact, she said it was her favorite vinegar. And to think I was met with blank stares and puzzled shopkeepers at no less than six other stores.

If you like fizzy-vinegary, you would like kombucha! My summer fave by far. Yum.
