HOMEMADE MOUTHWASH

HOMEMADE MOUTHWASH
I use an empty glass 1 quart vinegar bottle for the mouthwash as it has a nice pour spout and usually has a plastic cap. Your bottle must be very clean, you can actually sterilize the bottle in boiling water for several minutes. Let dry completely. 2 cups distilled water, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 10 drops peppermint EO (essential oil) 8 drops tea tree EO, 5 drops lemon EO, 2 drops myrrh EO- optional, 1-2 teaspoons xylitol or to taste. Using a funnel, add baking soda and xylitol first, then water and EO's. If using myrrh, it will tend to collect rather than mingle with other ingredients. Cap it and shake to blend well. Keep in a dark cabinet. Shake well before each use to re-blend. I usually 1 1/2 or double the recipe. Make sure not to swallow the mouthwash!!!
