The Bush Essences use brandy as a preservative agent, is there an alternative to brandy?
Brandy is added to the Bush Essences as a preservative agent, however, the alcohol content in a dose is almost infinitesimal. If you would prefer to not have brandy in your essences, they can be made with just purified water. However, if you are using purified water, it would be best to keep the bottle in a cool place or in the refrigerator. The shelf life would only be two weeks whereas with brandy it is at least three years.
