Infusing herbs in jojoba oil

[Guest guest]

Hi Holly,

 

I always use the blender method when I make infused oils. I usually have some

sort of formula set up at the beginning, but you can also just eye it if you

want. I put the dried herbs into a glass blender, pour oil in, and blend until

the sides are warm. Then I pour it all into a glass jar and put it in a dark

place for a couple weeks. Sometimes longer if I forget, or shorter if I need

the oil faster.

 

Also, I like to double infuse instead of doing it all at once.. I take the total

amount of herb that I would use and cut it in half.. make the oil with half the

herb, leave it for a couple weeks, strain it, and add the other half of the

herbs. This just makes it easier to strain and I find that I have much less oil

waste.
