Rosemary Hand Sanitizer Recipe

During the year we were still in our house before we moved out to the desert I researched different home remedies for different things. Since I was a teenager I had wanted to plant herbs and make my own herbal concoctions for different ailments. One of the items on my list that I painstakingly made was hand sanitizer. I found this one recipe online using Rosemary. At the time we had a huge Rosemary plant my our front door. I don’t have a picture of it but here is a picture of what Rosemary looks like so if you ever need it you know what to look for. I couldn’t find the exact recipe but this is the evolution of the hand sanitizer recipe through the years. I was so excited the first time that I made this.
