Procedure

Chop dried root finely (or use quality cut root from a supplier).
Fill the jar one quarter to one third and cover with about 40–50 % spirit so material stays submerged by a finger.
Close, label with date, macerate 4–6 weeks in the dark and shake daily; strain through cloth and store in glass.

Notes

Hands-on prep is modest; maceration takes weeks. Alcohol — omit for children, pregnancy, or alcohol-use disorder treatment; not a substitute for medical care.
