Libido Love ~ an Aphrodisiac Tincture
This tincture is a personal favorite... and tastes heavenly to boot.
LIBIDO LOVE TINCTURE; A medicinal tincture formula with the star ingredient Damiana (Turnera diffusa). Historically, Daminana was used mostly to increase sexual desire in men and women alike (as an aphrodisiac). Damiana is also used to treat headache, depression, nervous stomach, and constipation; for prevention and treatment of sexual problems; boosting and maintaining mental and physical stamina; and is an aphrodisiac. Some of my clients have reported this formula has improved the vaginal dryness associated with menopause.
Also included in my formula:
Sarsaparilla - Helps regulate testosterone, progesterone, and hormone production in both men and women, boosting libido and potency and is also an antioxidant and great for youthful skin.
Rose Petals and Buds: Famous for it's libido enhancing properties, studies have shown that Rose releases dopamine in the brain, a known motivator, may be what spurs the increase in sexual desire, while simultaneously alleviating symptoms of depression. Win Win.
Ceylon Cinnamon Bark: heats up your body thus increasing sex drive. Is a powerful aphrodisiac with many other health properties.
Ingredients: Organic and Wildcrafted Damiana, sarsaparilla root, rose petals and buds, ceylon cinnamon bark in a honey brandy extracted for 2 months. Infused with crystal and reiki energy as are all my products. Take one dropperful per day or as needed in water.
This tincture also makes a wonderful cordial too.
RECIPE:
Use 3-4 dropperfuls along with a 1/2 tbls each of rose water, vanilla extract, cacao, honey to taste in a cup of brandy and gently heat (do not boil) to mix all ingredients, let cool and sit for several days. Shake well and enjoy over ice or neat. (makes 1-2 servings)
