Re: how do i make my tincture stronger?

Interesting thread! Thanks!

Uni, I have a similar problem.

I'm a aim, ready, shoot kinda-a-gal and I realized that if I didn't just jump in there and start making tinctures, I would never learn.

So, I went ahead with milk thistle tincture...but I think I used 90 proof vodka. (I am fairly sure I did...I know I should write it down, but I made five tinctures at a time and some called for 80...)

The tincture has been sitting for almost 2 months. It smells very strongly of vodka.

Also, I had crushed some of the seeds, but not all, not most actually.

I am wondering, if perhaps I could make this tincture actually useful if I went ahead and ground the mixture or some of the mixture in my vitamix for a moment...and then let it soak some more?

I have a LOT! I hate to see it go to waste!

Thoughts? Thanks in advance! Tweet
