Ingredients: 3 cups epsom salts 1 ½ cup kosher salt 6 drops peppermint oil 2-3 drops red and green food coloring
Directions: Divide the epsom salts into three 1 cup amounts and place in plastic bags. Add peppermint oil to two bags, leaving one unscented. Add green food coloring to one bag and stir until well distributed. Add red food coloring to second bag and mix well. By now you should have three bags of salts in green, red and white. With a spoon, start with the red salts and fill your decorative bottle until a nice layer is visible... an inch or two depending on size of bottle. Add second layer of white salts this time and finish off with a third layer of green. Cap the bottle tightly and you are done. Recipe can be easily doubled.
