Apple Cider Essential Oil Blend Recipes
The apple cider essential oil blend doesn’t actually use apple. There is no apple essential oil. Instead, the blend uses other scents that when combined give off the aroma that reminds you of this type of spiced cider, which is popular during the fall or winter holidays.
The scents you want to start with are ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, and orange. These four scents can be used in different combinations to create two different apple cider essential oil blends.
Apple Cider Essential Oil Blend Recipe 1
3 drops Cinnamon
2 drops Nutmeg
2 drops Sweet Orange
Apple Cider Essential Oil Blend Recipe 2
3 drops Cinnamon
3 drops Ginger
2 drops Sweet Orange
All of these essential oils are hugely popular during the Holidays and are used to create a wide range of seasonal blends. They are also used in several homemade Christmas gifts.
Cinnamon essential oil gives the blend that distinctive apple cider scent, while the nutmeg and ginger oils give it a hint of spice, and the orange oil gives it that fresh sweetness.
If you want more of a fruity cider blend, add a little more orange essential oil.
If you are looking for more of a spiced cider essential oil blend, add in a drop of clove or cardamom essential oil.
Experiment by adding one drop of each scent at a time to an empty amber glass bottle until you are happy with the final result.
