I have several bags of herbs stored in my freezer, so I am going to do it soon! <BR/><BR/><BR/>How does the vinegar extraction compare to the alcohol or glycerin extraction methods? I was thinking about doing the ones for my kids w/ glycerin and then some stronger ones w/ alcohol, but if the vinegar would work like the alcohol I would prefer that.
