RE: Making your own wine vinegars

Interesting! I've done a vinegar tincture for itching before (it was years ago, but I think ACV, calendula, and red clover), but I've never heard of wine vinegar.

Wine vinegars are the original vinegar. What we read as wine when reading about the Romans was essentially vinegar. It was later that folks worked out how to keep the flavours and body without it turning sour.

The itching aceta that you made sounds interesting. What was the role of the Red Clover? It's a plant i haven't used much before finding a reasonable supierlast year. Always interested in learning!

I didn't realize that's what the Romans drank! Bleh. LOL
I will have to look at the book where I referenced to make the tincture before, it's been so many years!

The Romans also ate Lettuces before bedtime to help them sleep 😉
