Cook’s Note
You can substitute balsamic vinegar for apple cider vinegar.
My Great Grannie Gerdes, lovingly referred to as "Keister Gamma" by my family (long story), used to wash and disinfect with vinegar. She espoused the medicinal properties of the soured wine and used it to great effect while attaining a healthy 103 years of age. She must have been doing something right. My experience brewing kombucha has instilled a respect for the temperature-sensitive active components in the medicinal qualities of vinegar, honey, and essential oils.
