Herbalists , throughout the centuries , have made tinctures from herbs
and alcohol.
The alcohol draws the essences of the herbs out and preserves it.
This was used in the home and for long journeys because of its long life and
convenience.Today the same is done with many medicines and potions and the mixtures are
blended with different mediums to give you medicines as varied as cough mixtures to
arthritic salves.
