Osha Pastilles Osha is a traditional Native American treatment for upper respiratory infections. This recipe is courtesy of our Quality Control and Laboratory Manager, Steven Yeager. In addition to his work at Mountain Rose Herbs, he has also been teaching at the Columbines School of Botanical Studies for 13 years. These pastilles are great for sore throats and after a long night of singing or howling at the moon! - 1 gram organic Acacia (Gum Arabic) powder - 4 grams organic Sugar (Steven uses Maple sugar) - 3 grams Osha root powder - 1 gram organic Licorice root powder - Water or herbal extract/tincture of your choice Combine and mix dry ingredients in a bowl. With a one ounce glass dropper, add one dropperful of water at a time to the bowl. (Steven likes to use Osha root or Elecampane root tincture instead of water). Keep adding one dropperful of water or tincture until the mixture holds together in a clump, similar to the consistency of cookie dough. Be careful not to add too much liquid. Form into small pastilles/lozenges/stars/hearts etc. Keep the shapes small as the pastilles will be strong! These are medicinal, not candy. Coat the outsides with additional Licorice root powder if desired. Allow to dry on a screen or plate for a few days. Store in a glass jar. mountainroseblog/herbal-cold-flu-remedies/
