Peppermint Vanilla Sugar Scrub

If you are looking for a gift to give friends or neighbors this holiday season, this Peppermint Vanilla Sugar Scrub is an easy and simple gift idea. It is a thoughtful and nice gift, and it is also less expensive than if you purchased a sugar scrub from the store. I also love that the peppermint and vanilla fragrance complement each other and smell good together.

The Peppermint Vanilla Sugar Scrub is only 4 ingredients. Before I made it, I went through my pantry and found that I already had all of the ingredients to make the sugar scrub. And since I do canning every fall, I even had small 8-oz jars, lids and bands downstairs in my basement. It made it nice that I already had everything needed to make a handful of sugar scrubs that I could give to neighbors.

Here is how to make homemade Peppermint Vanilla Sugar Scrub:

INGREDIENTS:

1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup coconut oil
1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract or 6 drops peppermint essential oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

You’ll also need:
8 oz (half pint) Regular Mouth Mason Jars
Regular Mouth Lids and Bands

DIRECTIONS:

Combine the sugar and coconut oil. Add the peppermint extract and vanilla extract and stir well. Pour into 8 oz. mason jars and put lid and band on top. Place a label on top and add a finishing touch with a bow. This recipe makes enough for 2 half pint (8 oz.) mason jars.
