Not quickly. Apple cider vinegar will help alkalize the body and the urine making it less hospitable to bacteria in general, but that takes time. D-Mannose, probiotics or pure cranberry juice may work faster. If you have had a UTI for more than 3 days go see your doctor.

Yes, it is a good treatment for your infection. It helps to kill bacteria which is the cause of your infection.

Yes you can drink it to remedy a UTI however there are other home remedies such as drinking cranberry juice or grape juice that are tastier and work just as well. Try drinking a lot of water also, the idea is to flush out your system with liquids, additional a over the counter pain reliever can help discomfort.

I wouldn't suggest it. the acid may actually make it worse. Try drinking pure cranberry juice, not the cranberry cocktail.
