Source of vitamin C
You may not believe it, but this drink was actually used as a medicine to fight some diseases! Just like a cup of tea, Apfelwein must be served hot, with a cinnamon stick and a drop of lemon.
The original recipe is from the 11th century and was brought to Germany by the Spanish people. When they first realized that vitamin C was actually a great way to prevent some diseases, they couldn’t get enough of this!
