Four Thieves Vinegar/used for disinfecting

2 quarts of vinegar
2 tablespoons each:


lavender
rosemary
sage
rue
mint
wormwood
garlic
Soak and shake all of the herbs for two weeks and strain.

Legend has it that during the bubonic plague four thieves were caught stealing from houses where everyone had died from the plague. When the judge asked them how they were able to do this without contracting the plague, they claimed they drank and washed with this vinegar every few hours. In return for the recipe, the thieves got their freedom.
