Introduction:
The French have long been admired for their effortless elegance, glowing skin, and holistic wellness practices. One lesser-known beauty and health trick gaining traction among natural wellness enthusiasts is a surprising combination: coffee and vinegar. Though it may sound like an odd pairing, this dynamic duo boasts an array of internal and external benefits—from digestive support and detoxification to glowing skin and hair. Let’s explore how you can harness this French-inspired elixir to enhance your daily wellness routine.
Ingredients:
For Internal Health Tonic (Detox & Digestion):
1 cup of brewed organic coffee (room temperature or warm)
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (with "the mother")
1 teaspoon raw honey (optional, for sweetness)
A pinch of cinnamon (optional, for flavor and metabolism support)
For External Use (Facial or Hair Rinse):
½ cup brewed coffee (cooled completely)
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
¼ cup filtered water
Instructions:
Internal Health Drink:
Brew a fresh cup of organic coffee and allow it to cool to a warm or room temperature.
Stir in the apple cider vinegar, mixing well.
Add honey and cinnamon if desired.
Drink slowly in the morning on an empty stomach or after meals for digestive support.
Beauty Elixir (Skin/Hair Rinse):
Mix the cooled coffee with apple cider vinegar and filtered water in a clean bowl or bottle.
For a facial toner: Apply gently to clean skin using a cotton pad. Avoid the eye area.
For a hair rinse: Pour over hair after shampooing, let it sit for 1–3 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with cool water.
Serving and Storage Tips:
For the internal drink, prepare a fresh batch each morning. If you're short on time, you can pre-mix the coffee and vinegar (without honey) and store it in the fridge for up to 2 days. Just reheat slightly before drinking.
The beauty elixir can be stored in a sealed container in the fridge for up to a week. Shake well before each use.
