On August 20 I harvested the cayenne from my garden, diced the pepper, added it to a jar, and covered it with 95% grain alcohol. I left it to mascerate in a dark place for 6 weeks, shaking the jar every 1-2 days. 6 weeks later on October 2 I strained and bottled the tincture.

Harvested cayenne last year, I dried it, packed a jar full, smooshed it down to break up
The dried pieces , I used everclear for one jar and vodka for the other, let sit for a month and strained. I use this tincture as a mouth spray for anxiety and breaking bad habits.
Its great for quitting vaping, everytime
You want a hit just spray your mouth 😂 I promise it does the trick.

I received some cayenne from a friend that had extra she grew. I decided to make a tincture with it.
I used fresh cayenne fruit to make the tincture.

Recipe:
Ratio: 1:5
Alcohol: 95% Everclear
Time: 4 weeks, shaking tincture everyday to ensure even distribution of the menstruum.

Here is the source I used to make the tincture from HERBAL MATERIA MEDICA -- Michael Moore.
