Meadowsweet Elixir (From Rosemary Glasdstar)
2 cups meadowsweet flowers2 cups vodka (50% is best)½ cup (scant) glycerin
Directions:Place the meadowsweet flowers in a jar. Add the vodka and glycerin to the jar. Shake well. Let this macerate for 4-6 weeks and check on it often. You may find that as the flowers soak up the alcohol and glycerin, the liquid will no long cover the herb.
To remedy this you can take a clean stone or weight and use it to weigh down the flowers below the liquid. If necessary, you can add a bit more alcohol to cover the herb. I opened my jar frequently and pushed down the flowers and that seemed to work just fine.
Once you are done macerating the herb, it’s time to strain off the mixture. The easiest way to do this is strain it through a cheese cloth which you then squeeze the dickens out of until you get all the moisture from the flowers. Once it is strained you can bottle and label it.
Meadowsweet is safe for most people. However, it should be used with caution for the following people

children under 16 who have the flu or chickenpox symptoms (because of the rare but serious Reye’s syndrome)
people with asthma (may stimulate bronchial spasms)
people who are allergic to aspirin
As with many herbs Meadowsweet should be avoided when pregnant or breastfeeding.
