Re: Bitters, again--anyone make their own?




yeah, I have pretty simple tastes--they run to things like saffron, beeswax and basilica-type incense resins. :-)The cost of beeswax candles! I know they're worth it, and wish the bees got better recompensed as well.>> Wish someone would give them some olive leaf for their mite blights, and leave them a bit of their own honey...

since I'm only making these for myself, (and for my son, 'on spec')I'm not expecting I'll be using a lot of anything. Everything costs more the first time you try it, right? This'll probably end up being my birthday present to myself.

Bitter orange--Is that what they use to make marmelade?
I know an herbalist nearby where I would think they have all these things; maybe down the road I can harvest something myself, or buy in bulk, but I'm really a rank beginner with all this....

Artichoke leaf--that's the edible part people dip in butter right? Or is it another part of the plant?

I'm always going into a small swoon over the artichoke potion in the health food store. A tall bottle with a picture of an artichoke, and something flowery on the box.
European. Probably it's what my body craves. Curious, my son is also attracted to the box.

I'll leave the dandelion out then--I have the dandelion mineral vinegar.

So, what about gentian and burdock, or yellow dock, and as 'base note'?
