Without wanting to uke ?

This is the first time I have taken an herbal tincture and I had no idea they tasted so bad. Is there any kind of juice or anything that would mask the taste a bit?

I put it in COLD APPLE JUICE and it tasted a tad bit like cider......but drank it cold...just about 4 oz of juice....OJ works ok too but I like Apple better....HTH...

I just dropped it in my mouth once and never did that again.....

I used oj but just a little bit, maybe two gulps full. Another option might be the capsules.

If you dilute it with juice, only use a little bit (1 tablespoon). Also, if you are taking the tincture you shouldn't drink for 20 minutes before or after. I called the company and this is the info. they gave me a few months ago.

When I don't dilute it I just plug my nose and drink it. Then I keep it plugged for a minute or so to help. When I use the one that has Goat's Rue it's really bad! But I do believe these herbs help, so it's worth it!

cranberry or purple grape juice worked best for me. I would just use a very little bit..enough to hide the taste and do a quick "shot"

: Absolutely -and do it in shot form because yes that stuff tastes very yucky...but it worked like magic for me! Of course, then it made me and everything around me smell like maple syrup. I couldn't eat anything with maple for months and months!
