Summary:

Take a break ~ It's Tea Time. Have a cup of chamomile and a cucumber sandwich.

Ingredients:

1 lb. Avocado & Cucumber glycerin soap base, cubed
1 Tablespoon avocado butter
2 oz. cucumber
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
1 chamomile tea bag (opened)
30 drops Roman Chamomile essential oil

Instructions:

Cube the cucumber and coat with lemon juice. Puree the cucumber in a blender or food processor. Strain the cucumber puree through a paper towel lined strainer. This will remove the excess moisture.
Melt the cubed soap and butter in a double boiler over medium heat, stirring constantly.
When the soap is just melted, remove from heat and add tea leaves and cucumber puree. Mix gently.
Allow the soap to cool slightly before adding the essential oil.
Pour the soap into a soap mold and allow it to harden.
