Ingredients

1x
  • 5ml (1 tsp) alcohol-based tincture
  • 1 herbal tea bag (chamomile, peppermint, or lavender)
  • 240ml hot water
  • Honey to taste

How to Make It

  1. 1Steep tea bag in hot water for 3-5 minutes.
  2. 2Remove tea bag. Let cool slightly (below boiling).
  3. 3Add tincture dose and stir. The slight temperature drop preserves potency.
  4. 4Add honey if desired. Sip slowly.

Pro Tips

  • Don't add tincture to boiling water — let it cool to drinking temperature first.
  • Chamomile and lavender teas complement the relaxation effects naturally.
  • Glycerin tincture works too and adds a slight sweetness.

Serving Ideas

Best as an evening or bedtime drink. Add honey for sweetness. Chamomile or peppermint tea work especially well.

Substitutions

No Double boiler? Use Slow cooker on low

Slower but effective

Carrier swap guidance

Switch alcohol to glycerin

Flavor: Sweeter and softer with much less harshness.

Potency handling: Usually weaker extraction and slower uptake than high-proof alcohol.

Texture: Thicker liquid with easier direct use but lower strength ceiling.

Useful for alcohol-free tinctures if you accept lower extraction efficiency.
