| Herbal Recipes |
| Herbal / Beer Rinse (Courtesy of Cowgal) 1 1/2 cup distilled water 3 - 4 herbal tea bags (fresh herbs can be substituted for tea bags) 1 bottle Guiness Stout Boil water and add tea bags, simmer for 1/2 hr. Let steep overnight. Strain and add beer to tea. Store in a dark glass bottle. When ready to use, add to 1/4 - 1/2 cup to 1/2 - 1 gallon distilled water*. Do not rinse out. |
| Herbal / ACV Rinse (Courtesy of Grace) Boil 2 cups Apple Cider Vinegar Remove from heat Add 4-6 tea bags (and any other herbs you prefer) Pour entire mixture in a dark glass bottle, shake once a day for 3 weeks. After vinegar infusium is ready, add to 1/4 - 1/2 cup to 1 gallon distilled water*. Do not rinse out. If you feel the vinegar smell is too strong, you can put on a bit of conditioner before the rinse to difuse the scent. |
| Good Herbs to use Nettles Rosemary Lavender Lemon Verbena Fenugreek Sage Rosehips etc. |
| *If you are lucky enough to have soft water, you can substiutue the distilled water for regular tap water. |
