Green Tea-Ginger Bath Salts
|
| Ingredients
1 cup extra light virgin olive oil
1/3 cup green tea
1/4 cup powdered ginger
Reusable coffee filter (or several paper filters and basket from coffeemaker)
3 lb. container of Epsom salts
thrift-store or baby food jars
|
1. Warm olive oil in a large Pyrex measuring cup in a saucepan of boiling water. Mix in green tea first, then ginger, stirring to blend well. Continue stirring intermittently for 20 minutes and remove from heat.
2. Pour tea-oil mixture through filter into a large mixing bowl, one-third at a time, reserving oil and discarding grounds. Let cool to room temperature.
3. Combine green tea-ginger oil with Epsom salts, stirring to mix well. Place in jars and label.
If you double the amount of green tea-ginger oil, you’ve got a salt scrub.
