[QW- No. 12]
Queen of Hungary's Water

Based on the ancient recipe from eastern Europe, this vinegar extract of summer flower blossoms and herbs harvested at the peak of summer power is an all purpose, ph balancing cosmetic lotion. Use as an astringent facial toner, hair rinse, and skin conditioner. Due to the presence of  vinegar, this is the least popular but the most beneficial of products. Making  a glass vat full of organic vinegar and brightly colored  flowers and herbs that sits, absorbing the energy of the sun or moon, connects me to my family's ancestors in Slovakia and to traditions of using simple processes to extract the healing properties of our common plants.

Ingredients: Melissa leaf*, Hyssop blossom*, Chamomile blossom*, Rosebud*, Calendula blossom*, Comfrey root*, Rosemary leaf*, Sage leaf*, Lavender blossom*, and Lemon peel* all infused with gentle heat and light from the sun and moon in Apple Cider Vinegar*, Witch Hazel, and Distilled water; Lavender essential oil
