Made this quick sugar scrub for some girlfriend gifts - literally took me 5 minutes. Actually it took me longer to tie the twine on the jar and get it to stay than it did to make the scrub! Smells great, and is totally edible if you get hungry while showering LOL.Mix together 1 cup white sugar with 1/4 cup coconut oil (coconut oil is solid at room temperature, just micro it for a few seconds and it will liquify), 1 teaspoon peppermint extract and a drop of green food coloring. Use more of the peppermint and color if you want either stronger - I was going for pale green and just a hint of peppermint. Stir until all of the ingredients are incorporated - if it seems a little dry just add a bit more oil until you get the consistency you want - then spoon into a pretty jar. I tied on a label with a length of bakers twine to finish.
