How to Make Rosemary Oil
Rosemary oil has the ability to restore dull hair, promote growth, heighten culinary dishes, and more. Here’s a guide on how to make rosemary oil at home.
Equipment
- Mason Jar or Airtight Container
Ingredients
- Olive Oil
- Dried Rosemary Leaves
- Optional: Cheesecloth or Cotton t-shirt
Instructions
- Start by adding 3 Tablespoons of dried rosemary to a mason jar.
- Fill the rest of the mason jar with olive oil, ensuring all the rosemary is fully submerged.
- Place the lid on the mason jar. Please give it a gentle shake to distribute the rosemary evenly.
- Sit the jar near a window. Allow it to sit and infuse for 2-4 weeks. During this time, give the jar a gentle shake every few days to enhance the infusion process.
- Once it is infused, you may want to strain out the dried rosemary. You can do this by placing a cheesecloth or strainer over the mouth of the mason jar.
- Pour the rosemary olive oil mixture over the strainer to let the olive oil through, and keep the rosemary pieces on top. You will need a second mason jar or container for this part.
- Press down on the rosemary remnants with a spoon or spatula to extract any remaining oil.
