Ingredients:

1 cup of fresh chamomile flowering tops

3/4 cup of fresh lavender flower buds

1 strip of Lemon zest peel

2 tbsp of fresh chopped lemon balm leaves

Organic raw honey

100 proof vodka (50% alcohol)

Take 12 oz mason jar and add all the fresh plant material. Pour enough raw honey over the plant material to fill 1/4 of the jar with honey, then fill the rest of the jar to the very top with the vodka. Screw lid onto the jar and give it a good shake to dissolve the honey into the vodka. Label the jar and place the elixir in a cool dark space to allow the alcohol in the vodka to slowly extract all the nourishing and medicinal properties of the plant material. Allow the elixir to infuse for six weeks (giving the jar a gentle shake once a day), then strain the elixir into a clean jar, label and store in a cool dark space or in your refrigerator. And voila - now you have a wonderful elixir that will help calm and relax your nerves and anxiety. Take a tsp of the elixir before bed and let your mind and body become more serene as you drift into a state of relaxation and sleep. I also love adding this elixir to a gin and tonic cocktail! Enjoy!
