🌿 How It’s Made and Why It Works
In a world full of pills and synthetic remedies, more people are turning to natural alternatives. One of the most effective and trusted forms of herbal medicine is the tincture.
At Creator’s Touch Botanicals, we handcraft our tinctures using traditional methods to ensure purity and potency. But what exactly is a tincture, and why does it work?
💧 What is a Tincture?
A tincture is a concentrated herbal extract made by soaking herbs in a solvent like alcohol or vegetable glycerin. This process pulls out the plant's beneficial compounds—such as alkaloids, flavonoids, and essential oils—preserving them in liquid form for easy use.
Tinctures are one of the oldest and most effective methods of delivering herbal medicine because they’re fast-acting and easy to dose.
🛠️ How We Make Our Tinctures
At Creator’s Touch Botanicals, we use a carefully measured 1:3-1-5 herb-to-menstruum ratio, meaning every 1 part herb is extracted into 53 parts liquid. (Depending on herb)
This ensures our tinctures are both potent and balanced.
We use:
-
Cold extraction methods to preserve plant integrity
-
Only organic or wildcrafted herbs
-
No fillers, artificial colors, or preservatives
Whether you prefer alcohol-based or glycerin-based tinctures, we craft both with the same high standards.

⚡ Why Tinctures Work So Well
Tinctures are fast-absorbing because they’re liquid. They bypass digestion and enter the bloodstream more quickly than teas or capsules.
This makes tinctures ideal for:
-
Stress and anxiety relief
-
Sleep support
-
Immune system support
-
Digestive and cleansing needs
🥄 Glycerin vs Alcohol Tinctures
We often get asked: “Which tincture is better—glycerin or alcohol?”
Here’s a quick comparison:
| Alcohol-Based | Glycerin-Based | |
|---|---|---|
| Potency | Stronger extraction | Milder extraction |
| Shelf Life | Up to 5 years | 1–2 years |
| Taste | Bitter | Sweet |
