Herbal distillates

Okay, kiddo! Let me explain what herbal distillates are. Have you ever smelled flowers or herbs before? They have a really nice scent, right? Well, sometimes people extract that nice scent and put it in a bottle so you can use it for different things. That's called a distillate.

So how do they make these distillates from flowers and herbs? They use something called steam distillation. First, they put a bunch of the herbs or flowers in a big pot with water. They heat up the pot, and the steam from the water rises up through the herbs or flowers.

Then, they capture the steam and cool it down until it turns back into water. But this water now has all the nice scent from the herbs or flowers in it! That's the distillate.

People use distillates for lots of things. You might use them to make your room smell nice or to add flavor to your food. Some people even use them in beauty products to help their skin feel and look better. So next time you smell something really nice, think about how it might have come from a distillate made with herbs or flowers!
