If you have a serious diet soda addiction (like me) you probably know that it isn’t doing your health any favors. But it tastes so good! I mean, I can avoid a lot of things if I can just have a great big diet Dr. Pepper or diet Mountain Dew…I digress. I’m trying, really I am. and I’ve told you before that THM has a drink that helps with soda addiction – Good Girl Moonshine. I’ve shared with you my favorite recipe, but what I want to share with you today is how I make it easier for me to drink this each day.
Here’s the deal. I don’t like to have to put a lot of work into a drink. I just like to grab and go (thus why diet soda is so appealing to me). So I am always looking for a quicker way to do things. Enter GGMS Concentrate!
There it is! So simple! I don’t even have to dirty a new container to keep it in!
A couple notes about this…I like my GGMS with 2 TBS of ACV per quart. If you are new to GGMS you might want to start with 1 TBS at a time. I am not a huge ginger fan so I use 1/4 tsp per serving. And to give things an even bigger super food boost I add baobab!
GGMS Concentrate (This makes 8 servings)
16 TBS Apple Cider Vinegar*
2 tsp ginger powder
4 TBS Baobab Boost Powder (this is not part of the original recipe, but I like getting it in!)
3/4 tsp stevia
4 tsp pure cherry extract
4 tsp pure lime extract
Put all ingredients in a jar (I use an old ACV jar) and shake till mixed. Store in the fridge. Use 2 1/2 TBS of concentrate per quart of water. I like to use my soda stream to make sparkling water, then I don’t feel like I’m missing my soda! 🙂
*If you want your GGMS with less ACV use 8 TBS instead of 16 and use 1 1/2 TBS of the concentrate when making your quart of GGMS.

I have 2 questions. How long does this last in the fridge?
The bottle looks full. Do you add water?
Thanks. I love the idea. I want to get this going. I would rather have it ready to grab at home so I remember to drink it.
I use black cherry berry tea by celestial seasonings instead of extracts. I think I have lime extract, and if I do, I am going to try it.

I did not add any water to this. Just the ingredients that are listed. I just multiplied it enough to fill the bottle I had. This will store for a long time in the fridge because of the vinegar.

I’ve stopped drinking this recently because I’m too lazy to get everything out each day. I’m making this concentrate tomorrow. I have liquid ginger. How much of that would I use in place of the powdered ginger?

I would use two tablespoons

What happens if I took it on the road with me and did not store it in the fridge for a week?

Honestly, I do not know for sure. I would think that the vinegar would keep it safe but I can’t guarantee that.
