I guess I didn’t have the top tightened down enough and had some water leak into a 4 ounce bottle of “ plum river “
It’s pretty runny now,,,any tips on how to make it less runny?? To thicken it back up a bit?

Adding any to it now is only going to dilute it more

Put it in a sauce pan, and heat it on the stove to simmer off the water. Don't let momma catch you.

I have some kitty paste I traded for someone here on Tman last year for some chestnuts. It's really dried out this year. How do you thin it a bit?
