  1. These 3 herbs have magical romantic properties on their own, and when combined, create a love potion that draws you closer to the one you love. Take your time adding each ingredient to your jar to infuse your potion with calming energy. [1]
    • Rose is a universal symbol of love and can welcome romantic energy. [2]
    • Chicory root is said to remove spiritual obstacles and encourage success.
    • Jasmine is a delicate flower that can attract emotional love and increase sensuality.
  2. On a tiny piece of paper, neatly write down the name of the person you hope to attract and your name. Roll the piece of paper up and slip it into the jar. [3]
    • Make this a self-love potion by writing down your name twice or writing your name and something you want to love about yourself.

  3. Fill the jar with rose oil . Roses not only attract romantic energy, but they also promote luck, beauty, and confidence. [4] Pour the oil over the ingredients until you reach the top of the bottle, and then screw or pop on the lid.
  4. Light a pink candle and speak an affirmation over the jar. You can’t cast a love spell without intention. Charge your love potion with romantic or self-affirming energy by lighting a pink candle next to the jar. Then, say your intention for the potion out loud while the candle burns. [5]
    • Try saying something like, “I welcome love,” “I’m open to romance and compassion,” or “The love I have for myself is strong.”
    • Pink candles work best for setting romantic intentions because they represent love.
  5. The longer your candle burns, the more energy your potion will have. If the flame goes out sooner than you’d like, no worries! Simply continue relighting the candle to keep your path toward love clear.
    • Never leave a burning candle unattended. Keep a watchful eye on the flame while you perform other tasks or meditate on the love you hope to receive.
  6. This love potion welcomes and brings more love into your life, especially with the person whose name is on the note inside the jar. Once the love you’ve asked for has manifested, bring the jar to a secluded outdoor space and bury it to release the energy and thank the universe. [6]

  1. These 3 ingredients are packed with love-attracting energy, and when brewed together, make a bright, citrus tea. Use as much or as little of each ingredient as you’d like. Remember, this love potion is meant to help you attract what you need. [7]
    • Dill is said to cultivate joy, wealth, and energy. [8]
    • Hibiscus flowers are considered an aphrodisiac and can attract romantic energy. [9]
    • Orange peels or blossoms encourage a healthy heart and clarity. [10]
    • The amount of each ingredient you use is entirely up to you! Add 1 ⁄ 4 cup (12  tsp) of hibiscus for a lustful and pungent floral tea, or use 2 teaspoons (0.042  c) of dill leaves for a subtle earthy taste to uplift your energy.
  2. Cover the ingredients in the saucepan with water. Bring the water up to a simmer on low heat for no more than 5 minutes. [11]
    • As you do this, think about why you're making this love potion. What do you hope to gain from drinking the tea?
    • Setting intentions while the tea brews gives the potion its magical and energetic properties.
    • You might say something like, “I welcome new and empowering relationships into my life” or “I am worthy of love and respect.”
  3. After the water has simmered for a few minutes, turn off the heat, cover the saucepan, and let the tea sit. The herbs need at least 10 minutes to infuse the water with their healing properties; otherwise, you’ll have ordinary flavored water. [12]
    • The longer your tea steeps, the stronger it’ll be.
    • If you like weaker teas, leave the saucepan uncovered while it steeps.
  4. Pour the potion through the strainer directly into a cup or move it to a different saucepan or container. Consider filling lidded glass jars or bottles with tea to store in the fridge for later. [13]
  5. The beauty of this specific potion is that you can ingest or soak in it. Either way, it’ll help refuel your energy and confidence to help you attract more love into your life. Fill a mug with the delicious, warm beverage to enjoy with breakfast, or add a cup or two of the tea to a full bath.
    • Think about the intentions you set over the tea while you drink or bathe in it. Remember, you manifest your own magic!

  1. In witchcraft, apples are symbols of love, lust, and fertility. Having the base of your potion be the juice of this magical fruit can help you attract your most tempting desires. [14]
  2. Not only will this sweeten the potion, but it’ll also help sweeten your love for yourself and whoever you hope to attract. Try using a flavored sugar, like vanilla or lavender sugar , for extra sweetness. [15]
  3. Before adding more ingredients, take some time to think about why you’re making this potion. Do you want to attract a specific person? Are you hoping to learn to love yourself? Whatever your intentions, speak them over the potion until the sugar is thoroughly mixed. [16]
    • Try saying something like, “I am capable of loving others,” “I have a strong heart and welcome new experiences,” or “I feel loved and cherished in my relationship.”
  4. These spices can help flavor your magical drink and heat up your love life. Add as much or little as you like to fit your witchery needs. [17]

    • Cloves can boost your confidence, giving you the courage to talk to your crush.
    • Star anise is said to bring good fortune and luck.
    • Vanilla bean is a comforting flavor that’s believed to promote happiness, harmony, and intimacy.
  5. Keep a close eye on your potion and make sure it doesn’t boil, as this could disrupt its magical properties. Heat the drink just enough to infuse the flavors of the spices and melt the sugar. [19]
  6. Let the potion cool, and then place a sieve or mesh strainer over a jar or mug and pour out the contents of the pot. Sip on the potion while it’s warm to welcome soothing energy, or drink it over ice to invigorate compassion. [20]
    • Bottle your love potion in a jar or container with a lid to store in the fridge for later.

  1. Not only is a love honey potion tasty, but it’s also customizable. Choose whichever herbs fit you and your needs, and then set an intention over them as you place them in your chosen jar to charge them with magic. Simply say or think what you hope each herb will do for you. [21]
