This recipe is intended as a daily supplement to fortify the heart. This recipe is high in bioflavonoids and antioxidants, which protect and strengthen the body. The tincture blend is also warming for the circulatory system. Each of these tinctures are easy to make individually.

- 2 parts Nettle leaf tincture
- 1 part Rosemary leaf tincture
- 1 part Ginger root tincture

I like to fill a small 1-ounce bottle with a dropper, also labeled, as a usage bottle then refill it with the larger bottle that I reserve for bulk storage.
Procedure

- Using a funnel, pour the mixture into a darkly-colored glass bottle and cap it securely.
- Label the bottle with the name of the tincture blend and add the date.
