Combine ingredients in Part A and mix -- a hand held whisk works well. Set aside and allow dispersed gums to hydrate for at least 30 minutes, mixing every few minutes as it begins to thicken. When Part A is completely hydrated, heat to 170F in a double boiler to avoid burning.

Combine Part B ingredients. Heat Part B to 170F.

Add Part B to Part A and mix well (stick blender works well). As emulsion is cooling, add Part C with mixing. *Distilled Water can be replaced with one of The Herbarie Hydrosols if desired.
