Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons Bay or Jamaican Rum

- 4–5 drops of pure cinnamon essential oil
- 2–3 drops black pepper essential oil

Instructions
- You will need a mason jar (8 or 16 ounces) with a tightly fitting lid. In your jar, add both the rum and the witch hazel.
- Now let’s add the oils, one at a time, blending well each time.
- Once well blended, place in a clean jar with a tight lid. You can blend all ingredients in this jar from the beginning unless you are using dry ingredients. In that case, you will need to strain the ingredients several times first.
