Biggest surprise to me was
> that propolis tincture at $20 for a 2 oz bottle was a third of sales.

I made and sold propolis tincture for awhile. Vodka for the tincture and
vodka for the maker.
I had one complaint. A Russian fellow bought a bottle and instead of adding
a few drops to a glass of water he drank straight the two ounce bottle down.
He returned to the market the next week and smiled and wanted to know how
to get the green off his teeth.

I had a hard time trying not to laugh but explained one needed not kill the
two ounce bottle like a *Vodka
two ounce mini* sold at the liquor store to get the health benefits!
