    Honestly, I wouldn't spend calories on that vs. eating some whole fruit with nice filling fiber in it. They're right: Detox ain't a thing.

    I made a juice full of superfoods that aid in detoxification such as lemon, grapefruit, orange juice, and apple cider vinegar and cinnamon. I added a packet of stevia and 2 Tbsp honey to balance the sour taste. Honey is a natural antioxidant and cinnamon helps with detoxification and the balancing of blood sugar levels! Add water!

    If you take the vinegar out of it, i can see it might be a tasty and enjoyable drink and depending ow much water you use, not that high calorie.

    But it isnt super foods and it isnt detoxing.

    If you like it ( even with the ACV !! ) and it fits into your calorie allowance and you have no medical contra indications - then, sure, drink it
    Just don't credit it with any magic properties - it is just a combination of food ingredients, like any other recipe.

    and if you are going to drink it regularly, perhaps use recipe builder and log it as sweet and sour juice.

    or even detoxification juice if it makes you feel better - after all ,we can label our recipes whatever we like.

    Honey and hot water is great when you have a cough though. Feels good on the throat.

    You forgot the whiskey part!
