How to make herbal tincture using yarrow
A few of our viewers who watched our latest garden tours have asked Mrs. NG to make a yarrow herbal tincture. I started growing Mrs. NG a herbal garden for her to replace man-made medicine. One of the main herbal plants in there is yarrow.
There are a few different ways to make tinctures using alcohol, food-grade glycerin, and apple cider vinegar. In this video, we are going to show you how to make yarrow herbal tinctures using alcohol.

Vodka has been our favorite for tinctures. I have heard the clearer alcohols are better because the coloring of say 'whiskey' is that way due to more contaminants. Everclear for us has been a problem though. It completely deteriorated everything it went with and made it a weird consistency. Tons of good info here. We were offered some yarrow recently form a farm market friend of ours. Thanks for the share!

@TheNakidGardeners 3 года назад

Yea... Vodka is definitely the best! I didn't mention in the video that it really attracted alot of pollinators and beneficial insects... This is a great companion flower for the garden. Are you planning to try growing some?

@UT33200 3 года назад

@@TheNakidGardeners We might try some next season. We have a homesteading friend that offered us some recently and saved seeds from some I believe. In Spring we plan to either start some early or get some multiplied plants. They have greenhouses to probably keep going but our area is super cold for the Winter/Fall. :)

Lol! And here we are loving that they attract extra pollinators for our garden 😂... That is a good point, these are best for spots away from constant human traffic. Do you think you will ever try growing again?

@Monkchip 3 года назад

@@TheNakidGardeners I wanted to add to my prior reply, that yes, indeed, I'm planting yarrow in spring. I have a itty bitty garden and need lots of bees! I also wanted to say, I purchased one of those mosquito zappers and used it about 2 months over summer, and I'm in Michigan remember, but I'm quite sure those zappers killed the bees also. So we took the zapper away. My garden began to prosper------ just saying...What do you guys think about that? So, for holidays, we stay home, my husband and I, with our two doggies. I'll be cooking and baking for a few days, and we'll be eating for a few more days! I've spent several months Learning and Doing Prepping.

hi, informative vd, can you plz tell the name of vodka also how much string of yarrow, like proper measurments, thx madam

@TheNakidGardeners 3 года назад

For this one, I had a stronger proof than I wanted. I would prefer titos 80 proof moving forward and it is difficult calculating measurements because each harvest is different, what is important is making sure the vodka is a little above the yarrow. Sorry about not being able to be more specific. Thank you so much for watching!

@snehasanskritmaternallove3087 3 года назад

Hi there really liked your video. I have a quick question for you. I noticed that you cut the flowers just below the heads. Can you use the entire flower including the stem and root? Is it safe to use?. Its my first time in making herbal medicine, and didn't want to accidentally poison myself. Many thanks for any advice you can give me. Kindest regards from England UK

@TheNakidGardeners 3 года назад

It is possible, however, I followed Rosemary's method because it is a perennial and it will continue growing so you won't need to reseed depending on your growing zone. Thanks for watching, we appreciate you!
