Making my favourite winter herbal remedies (fire cider, elderberry tincture, & more)

[@klarawieckchannel]

Is there any expiration date to the tinctures with plant material? I once heard a well known Herbalist say y doesn’t matter how long it sits there in the vodka since it won’t go rancid. I have echinacea tincture that’s been sitting there for at least four years and haven’t used it.

Hey, alcohol-based tinctures generally have a super long shelf life if the plant material has been kept below the alcohol. As long as it has been stored in a cool, dark place and there are no signs of spoilage (like an off smell or mould) it should be fine!
