<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Did you know that gin was first created as an anti-malarial? Or that Buckfast Tonic Wine was created by Benedictine monks as a cure-all? Whie alcohol is today best known for its intoxicating properties, in the past it was prized for its ability to extract and preserve the active elements from herbs. In fact, many of our favorite drinks were originally created for medicinal purposes. <i>Herbal Elixirs</i> is a detailed guide to the process of creating your own herb-based alcoholic drinks and an exploration of the rich history of similar drinks across Europe. Topics covered include the history of herbal drinks in Europe; how to make your own tinctures, infusions, and decoctions; the art of distillation: how to make alcohol and use a still; botanical information for identifying and using plants; recipes for restorative herbal drinks, and finally, a seasonal guide to foraging in the UK. Drawing on both natural and scientific research, this fascinating book will reacquaint you with this tradition, offering detailed explanations of the processes involved and sharing the skills to design and make your own herbal elixirs.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Sue Mullett </b>is a qualified Medical Herbalist (BSc) and is the Distiller and Owner of the Bath Botanical Gin Distillery and Herbal Apothecary.
