Echinacea Tincture
INGREDIENTS
- 1 cup dried echinacea root or herb
- 2 cups high-proof alcohol (e.g., vodka or grain alcohol)
INSTRUCTIONS
Place the dried echinacea root or herb in a glass jar and pour the alcohol over it. Seal the jar tightly and shake gently. Allow it to steep in a cool, dark place for 6-8 weeks, shaking the jar occasionally. After the steeping period, strain the tincture, squeezing the soaked herbs to extract the liquid fully. Transfer the tincture to a dark glass dropper bottle, label it, and store in a cool place.
