How To Make an Antiseptic Lavender Mouthwash

This antiseptic mouthwash is perfect for everyone. Lavender is a natural antiseptic, making it perfect for an antiseptic mouthwash. This lavender mouthwash is ideal for those that don't like the standard minty flavors and want a more natural based mouthwash. I suggest using this mouthwash once per day in place of your regular mouthwash.


INSTRUCTIONS

•Step 1
Pour the water into a saucepan that has a lid, then pour in the dried lavender. Stir the mixture together gently, then put the lid on and bring the mixture to a simmer.

•Step 2
Once the mixture begins to simmer, allow it to simmer for 45 minutes, then remove the pan from the heat.

•Step 3
Strain the mixture into a large glass jar with a lid, or cosmetics bottle. If necessary, you can put the mixture into two seperate glasses.

•Step 4
Allow the mixture to cool until it reaches room temperature.

•Step 5
Add the sweet sherry to the mixture (and if necessary split between the two glasses equally), then stir the mixture gently and cover. You can store the mixture at room temperature, or store in the fridge.

•Step 6
To use, shake the mixture gently, then add 1 tablespoon of the mixture to 1 tablespoon of water and swish around the mouth for about 2 minutes, before spitting out the rest of the mixture. There's no need to rinse the mixture out.


Things You'll Need:
•1 Tablespoon of Dried Lavender
•1 1/4 Cups of Mineral Water
