Ingredients

  • 2 cups Filtered water
  • 1 teaspoon Fennel seeds
  • 1 teaspoon Chamomile flowers (dried)
  • 0.5 teaspoon Ginger (fresh, grated)
  • 1 small piece Cinnamon stick
  • 0.25 teaspoon Sugar-free vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of filtered water to a gentle boil.

Step 2

Add fennel seeds, dried chamomile flowers, fresh grated ginger, and the small cinnamon stick to the boiling water.

Step 3

Lower the heat to a simmer and cover the pan. Let the mixture steep for about 10-12 minutes, allowing the herbs to release their natural oils and benefits.

Step 4

Remove the saucepan from heat and strain the liquid through a fine-mesh strainer into a clean bowl or jar. Discard the solids.

Step 5

Allow the liquid to cool to room temperature. Once cooled, stir in the sugar-free vanilla extract for a hint of flavor.

Step 6

Transfer the gripe water into a sterilized, airtight container or bottle. Store in the refrigerator for up to one week.

Step 7

To use, consult your pediatrician for the recommended dosage based on your baby's age and weight. Typically, 1-2 teaspoons may be given, but always confirm for safety.
