Soothing Valerian Sleep Tincture 1 cup dried valerian root 2 cups high-proof vodka or brandy A dark glass bottle with a dropper Place the dried valerian root in a clean glass jar. Pour the vodka or brandy over the valerian root, ensuring it is fully submerged. Seal the jar tightly and store it in a cool, dark place for 4-6 weeks, shaking it gently every few days. Strain the liquid through a fine sieve or cheesecloth into a dark glass bottle with a dropper. Use 1-2 droppersful before bed to help ease anxiety and promote deep, restorative sleep.
