How to prepare Swedish Bitters
The preparation of Amaro Svedese is much simpler than you might think, just get everything you need and observe a few small important rules:
To prepare 1.5 liters of Swedish Bitters you need:
Alcohol: One and a half liters of grain or fruit brandy with an alcohol content of 40° (gin, vodka, grappa, etc.).
Swedish Herbs: To obtain 1.5 liters of Swedish Bitters you will need a total of 100 g of Swedish Herbs whose composition is as follows:
10 g of Aloe, or alternatively 10 g of Absinthe;
5 g of myrrh;
0.2 g of saffron;
10 g of Angelica root;
10 g of rhubarb root;
5 g of Carlina root;
10 g of Cassia leaves;
10 g of Turmeric root;
10 g of natural Camphor;
10 g of Venetian Teriaca;
10 g of Manna
2-litre glass vessel: A wide-mouthed glass vessel of at least 2 liters in which to pour the distillate and herbs.
Preparation: When you have everything you need, just pour the herbs into the glass container together with a liter and a half of distillate and leave everything in the sun (or near a heat source, such as a radiator) for 15 days .
Every day it is important to shake the container well .
After 15 days you will get a very dark liquid (like the image on the left) with an intense aroma, which will be filtered and poured into one or more glass containers to be kept in the fridge .
Swedish Bitters can thus be stored for several years without the risk of spoiling. On the contrary, Maria Treben states that with the passage of time the Swedish Bitters acquires greater therapeutic efficacy.
How to use Swedish Bitters
Swedish Bitters can be used both internally and externally, depending on the ailment being treated.
For internal use: As a preventive measure, take a teaspoon of Amaro Svedese, diluted in a glass of water, or in an herbal tea, half an hour before meals, 2 times a day (morning and evening).
For curative purposes, take a soup spoon diluted in water, or in an herbal tea, 2 or 3 times a day, taking half the dose half an hour before a meal (breakfast, lunch and dinner) and half half an hour after. Before use, it is important to shake the contents well.
For external use: In this case we speak of a poultice of Swedish Herbs .
Depending on the size of the area to be treated, take a small or large piece of cotton wool (or more simply cotton wool), to be soaked well with drops of Swedish Amaro and apply it to the area to be treated. Before applying the compress, it is very important to grease the affected area with pork lard or calendula cream (or alternatively with extra virgin olive oil, sweet almond oil, or St. John's wort or calendula oleolite). The reason is that alcohol, without a minimum of protection, would irritate the skin tissues.
At the end everything is covered with a slightly larger piece of plastic, to avoid staining the laundry. Finally, wrap everything with a cloth or bandage. Depending on the type of disease, the poultice must remain in contact with the diseased part for 2 to 4 hours . If tolerated well, it can be left for a whole night .
If, in spite of everything, skin irritation should occur in subjects with delicate skin , the application times of the packs should be shortened or the application postponed for a certain period.
Allergy sufferers , bind the cotton only with the cloth without using the plastic piece. In no case should you forget to grease your skin, as Swedish Bitters are alcohol-based and will most likely irritate your skin. If an itchy rash should already be in progress, treat it possibly with cream, or Calendula oil.
WARNINGS : Under no circumstances should you make self-diagnoses or deviate from the treatments that the doctors have prescribed. This article should not mislead the reader, but should use this Amaro as a complement to traditional medicine treatments.
Finally, as I always suggest, keeping a bottle of Swedish bitters at home is a natural first aid, very useful for common ailments.
