Description: All of the ingredients are either potent antibacterials or antivirals. This was reported to protect from the plagues during the Middle Ages. It could not hurt to make up a batch for protection today against bioterrorism plagues. |
Recipe Ingredients
|
- Use equal parts of the following herbs:
- lavender
- sage
- rosemary
- thyme
- lemon balm
- hyssop
- peppermint
- a handful of garlic cloves
|
Recipe Instructions
|
Blend in a capped Mason jar. Pour a quart of pure apple cider vinegar over the herbs.
Let infuse for six weeks, shaking daily.
Strain herbs and garlic.
Use infused vinegar as a topical spray to disinfect surfaces, including skin, and take as a tincture.
Whereas no home can be made to be sterile, spray the powerfully antiseptic Vinegar of Four Thieves recipe in areas of concern, such as on cutting boards and door knobs, always making sure to avoid your eyes.
