Ingredients

  • 4 cloves garlic fresh, chopped
  • ¼ cup peppermint chopped
  • ¼ cup rosemary chopped
  • ¼ cup thyme chopped
  • ¼ cup sage chopped*
  • ⅛ cup lavender chopped
  • 2 cups Apple Cider Vinegar ACV

Instructions

  • Chop the garlic cloves
  • Strip the herbs from their stems and roughly chop them on a cutting board.
  • Add the garlic and other herbs to your jar
  • Add enough vinegar to cover the herbs fully and add a good-fitting lid to the jar
  • Allow to sit in a cool place for minimum 7 days (or 1 month if possible)
  • Strain the liquid into a clean glass jar with a good lid.
  • Compost or discard the herbs

Notes

NOTE: use a plastic lid or use waxed paper or parchment or cling wrap between the jar and the lid.
No fresh herbs? Just ½ the quantities.. For example, ¼ c fresh thyme = ⅛ cup dried thyme
or make a super tonic and keep it all as is.. with the dried herbs. It's more of a relaxed template than a precise recipe.
