Make Own Dried Herb Tincture

dried herb tincture
The following steps are how to make own dried herb tincture:

1. Weigh 1.5 oz. (40 g) dried herb. Chop or grind into a coarse powder to create a larger surface area; this allows for greater penetration of the liquid. (Cinnamon quills, used here, have a large surface area so do not need chopping.)

Place the herb in a large glass jar with a secure lid and pour 2/3 cup ( 160 ml) vodka over it, ensuring that the herb is completely submerged. Stand the bottle in a warm place for 10 to 14 days, shaking it once or twice a day.

2. Strain the mixture through a piece of fine muslin. Squeeze as much moisture as possible from he remaining pulp.


3. Pour the tincture into a dark glass bottle. Seal and label with the name of the herb and the date you prepared the tincture. Makes about 3/4 cup (200 ml).
