Herbal Bath Bags

Herbal Bath Bags

 

  • 3 cups lemon verbena, crushed or snipped
  • 2 cups cut thyme
  • 2 cups peppermint (stripped from stem, finely cut)
  • 1 cup dried rose buds
  • 2 ½ to 3 cups lemon grass
  • 18 small drawstring muslin bags

Mix all ingredients and package into muslin bags. Condense mixture tightly into individual bags. Allow for a long drawstring in order to hang from the faucet under the water flow. Run bath with warm water, not hot. Add oatmeal for soothing effect or powdered milk for skin luster.
