DIY Minty Fresh Mouthwash

Mouthwash is great. It kills germs, it freshens breath, and it's that stinging deliciousness in the mornings that make us feel ready for the day. I can't make the drive to work if I haven't swished that minty freshness. 

But what lies beneath that freshness? Fluoride, coloring, and other ingredients I don't want in my mouth. I'm already making my own toothpaste. How hard can mouthwash be? Not hard at all. 

What you'll need:

Bottle (I used glass bottle .50L)

1 cup Vodka*

1 cup Water

1 cup Hydrogen Peroxide

25-30 drops Peppermint essential oil**

2 droplets of liquid Stevia

12 drops Trace Mineral

Directions:

Mix in all liquids into glass bottle. Mix well. 

*If making this mouthwash for kids, leave out the alcohol. Use 1 1/2 cup water with 1 1/2 cup hydrogen peroxide. I made it for my 4 year-old nephew without alcohol and it worked very well. 

**I recently made infused vodka with mint. Once it is ready, I will replace the peppermint oil with the infused vodka. 

Happy rinsing!
