Hops in the Sack Tincture Mix

When the chores are done and the lanterns go dim, homesteaders often reached for gentle herbs to help mark the end of the day. Our Hops in the Sack Tincture Mix blends hops, passionflower, and skullcap—plants long valued in traditional apothecaries for their use in evening preparations.

This “dump-and-go” mix makes tincture-making simple at home. Just place the herbs in a glass jar, cover with 100-proof alcohol (or vegetable glycerine), steep for at least 2 weeks, strain, and bottle. It’s the kind of heritage-inspired blend often found in farmhouse apothecary cupboards, prepared with care as part of the nightly wind-down.

Apothecary & Homemaking Uses

• Herbs traditionally prepared in farmhouse apothecaries for the evening hours

✨ Pro Tip: Add a few drops to warm water or tea before settling in with a good book—the gentle herbal notes make a comforting way to end the day.
