Hawthorn is well-known for its ability to physically strengthen the heart. It has been shown to help regulate blood pressure & cholesterol, promote cardiac function, and reduce palpitations.
Hawthorn is also a calming nervine that deeply nourishes the emotional heart. It is a wonderful ally for soothing grief, worry, and heartache.
When combined with relaxing, uplifting rose, these two herbs make for a gentle yet potent formula. Whip up a bottle of this tasty elixir to have on hand and take as needed to ease depression, anxiety, emotional upset, heartbreak, nervous tension, and stress.
Ingredients:
¼ c pink rose petals
½ c hawthorn berries
approx. ½ c whiskey
1 Tbsp honey
Directions:
Add the rose petals and hawthorn berries to a jar. Drizzle in the honey then pour in the whiskey. Make sure that the herbs are fully submerged in the whiskey, adding a little more to cover them if necessary.
Cap the jar tightly and shake well. Label the jar and store it in a cool, dark place for 4-6 weeks. Then strain out the herbs using a cheesecloth. Pour the liquid into a clean bottle.
