Elderberry Tincture 接骨木藥酒

https://thenerdyfarmwife.com/elderberry-tincture-with-herbs/ states the procedures of making elderberry tinctures.

The following information is from https://thenerdyfarmwife.com/elderberry-tincture-with-herbs/

Directions to make elderberry tincture:

Fill the jar about 1/4 of the way, if using dried elderberries, or 1/2 of the way if using fresh berries.
Add a few pinches of antiviral herbs, if you’d like.
Add vodka to the jar until it’s almost filled to the top.
Use a chopstick or knife to gently stir and release any air bubbles; add more vodka if needed.
Cover with a lid, label, and tuck in a dark cabinet for 4 to 6 weeks, or longer.
Strain and pour the elderberry infused liquid into glass jars or bottles.

Shelf life is at least one year, or longer.

St. John's Wort Salve 聖約翰草藥膏

Inspired by reading this herb book, I made this St. John's Wort Salve.

The following information is from: The Complete Herbs Sourcebook by David Hoffmann, p. 320.

"... Externally, it is a valuable healing and anti-inflammatory remedy. As a lotion, it will speed the healing of wounds and bruises, varicose veins, and mild burns. The oil is especially useful for the healing of sunburn."

聖約翰草外用功效：癒合與抗發炎。加速傷口、瘀青、靜脈曲張、輕微燙傷的痊癒。浸泡油對曬傷很有幫助。
