Weigh the oats and place them into a bowl for mixing
100 grams Ground Oats
Grate the cocoa butter and add it to the oats, as the cocoa butter tends to melt whilst you are grating it speed is of the essence here. The butter can initially make the oats clump, just keep stirring and they will disintegrate. If they don’t they will be in the bag anyway so you won't even see them.
15 grams Cocoa Butter
Sprinkle in the mint and lavender and give the mixture a final stir.
5 grams Dried Lavender Buds, 2 grams Dried Mint Leaves
Place a couple of spoonfuls into each tea bag or muslin square, tightly secure the tea bags so that none of the contents can escape.
8 Empty Bath Tea Bags
Store the bags in an airtight jar or container until needed.
Notes:
How To Use Your Homemade Bath Tea Bag
To use the bath tea bags put one into the bath and run the hot water into the bath first.
Cool the bath down to a nice comfortable temperature, then swish it around a bit and squeeze it a few times.
Leave the bag in while you have your bath and use it like you would soap by gently rubbing it over your body.
