National Apple Cider Vinegar Day

National Apple Cider Vinegar Day celebrates apple cider vinegar and its many uses, from salad dressings to marinades. Observed each September 23, the holiday was created by Bragg Live Food Products in May 2021. Its organizers encourage people to share their favorite recipes and everyday uses for the ingredient.

Apple cider vinegar starts with apples, but fermentation gives it its characteristic sourness. Yeast converts the apples’ sugars into alcohol, and bacteria then turn that alcohol into acetic acid. As UChicago Medicine explains, this acid supplies the vinegar’s sour taste. In the kitchen, that tang brings flavor to dressings, sauces, and vegetables—a fitting reason to put a bottle to use today!

How to Observe National Apple Cider Vinegar Day

Celebrate by making a dish that features apple cider vinegar. Try Bragg’s honey mustard vinaigrette, which combines it with honey, Dijon mustard, and olive oil. Toss it with your favorite greens, drizzle it over roasted vegetables, or serve it as a dipping sauce. Share your favorite apple cider vinegar recipe with a friend and compare how you each use it in the kitchen.
