How To Make Herbal Tinctures And Extracts With Food Grade Ethanol
A tincture is typically a botanical extract of plant material dissolved in ethanol, also know as grain alcohol. Food grade ethanol (200 proof, 190 proof or 140 proof) and organic alcohol are the best types of pure ethyl alcohol to use for herbal tinctures because they are safe for human consumption. Herbal tinctures are concentrated herbal extracts in liquid form made by soaking leaves, seeds, or flowers in ethanol.
