Equipment

  • spray bottle

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup brewed nettle tea
  • 1 cup strongly brewed chamomile tea
  • 2 tbsp blended aloe vera or gel
  • 5 drops ylang ylang oil

Instructions
 

  • Bring the water to boil.
  • Add the dried or fresh herbs, lower the heat and simmer covered for 5 mins. Turn off the heat and let the herbs cool. Strain. You can also use bagged tea (I double bag for extra strength).
  • Combine the strained & cool herbal mixture with the essential oils & aloe vera in the spray bottle, and shake thoroughly to combine.
  • I store this in the refrigerator.
  • NOTE: if using fresh aloe, you'll need to combine in a blender or mini food processor and blend til smooth so it won't have chunks. I snip aloe leaves from my plant.
