You know how much we love Do It Yourself (DIY) recipes. They are fast, inexpensive and good for you. Most importantly they are chemical-free.
This is a great DIY antiseptic rosemary mouthwash.
Rosmarinus officinalis, commonly known as rosemary, is a woody, perennial herb with fragrant, evergreen, needle-like leaves and white, pink, purple flowers, native to the Mediterranean region. Rosemary contains a number of potentially biologically active compounds, including antioxidants carnosic acid and rosmarinic acid. It is a potent antiseptic.
Anise seeds are very aromatic and make this mouthwash a very refreshing one. Anise is used to flavor French spirits absinthe, anisette and pastis.
