Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ¼ cups 80 proof vodka
- â…“ cup sage leaves
- ¼ cup thyme leaves
- ¼ cup lavender buds
- peel of 1 lime or lemon
- Essential oils:
- Sage (6 drops)
- Lavender (4 drops)
- Tea tree (3 drops)
- Patchouli (3 drops), and either lemongrass or lime (3 drops) per quarter-cup spray bottle
- 1/2 teaspoon colloidal silver per quarter cup spray bottle, optional
- ¼ cup magnesium chloride flakes, optional
Instructions
- Measure out the herbs & citrus peels into a pint sized mason jar.
- Cover them with vodka and top with a lid.
- Set the jar aside in a place where you’ll remember to give it a shaking once a day for about a month.
- When it’s ready, strain the herbs from the tincture, funnel some into a spray bottle.
- If using magnesium chloride, add it to the tincture and stir or shake until it has dissolved.
- Add your essential oil blend and colloidal silver if you’re using it.
- Place the remainder of the tincture in a cupboard until you’re ready to use it.
- Shake the spray bottle vigorously prior to each application to mix in the oils (otherwise they’ll just uselessly sit at the top.)
