Though I have not used Glycerin in oral form I am almost certain you

can do the same replacing Vodka in many recipes.

 

Place 1/2 cup of Pepermint Leaves and 1/2 cup of sage leaves in the

bottom of a glass container. Cover Herbs with Glyserin and shake

daily for 2 weeks. Strain herbs. This concentrate may be diluted

with water. Try using 1 TBS. concentrate to 1 cup water. Ive used

the vodka method and it works very well.

Chris,

I have one i have not tried yet but I think you could add or subsitute in it.. here it is.

Mouthwash

Ingredients:

4 oz. Water 4 oz. Vodka (vodka may be substituted for water or a pure rosemary tea infusion) 4 teaspoons Liquid Glycerine (available at many drug stores) - optional and simply sweetens the mouthwash 10-12 drops Peppermint or Spearmint Essential Oil 5 drops Myrrh (optional - Myrrh can assist in mouth and gum care)

Notes: This recipe makes a rather minty mouthwash but as it contains no added flavorings, it is not as sweet or strong as commercially available mouthwashes.

Directions: Boil the water and vodka then add the glycerine. Remove from the heat and let cool for 10 minutes. Add the essential oils and let cool for 1/2 hour and bottle. I like to bottle the mouthwash in a clear plastic bottle that has a flip top to make it easy to pour the mouthwash into a small dixie cup for use.

Chris, here's my mouthwash formula -

 

Boil together 4 oz. water and 4 oz. vodka. Add 4 t. liquid glycerin. Remove from heat and let cool for 10 minutes. Add 12 drops peppermint oil and 5 drops sage oil. Let cool for 30 minutes, then bottle.
