Is sandalwood poisonous if eaten?

Can't say about sandalwood as a whole but sandalwood oil is not poisonous
to humans. It is used in various medicinal preparations of the Ayurvedic
(ancient Indian) system.


I was thinking of making a thin watery drink with the following whole
ingredients [raw, natural, organic, un-processed, solid, all products
whole and not juiced] with my VitaMix blender:

1. Sandalwood
2. Licorice
3. Betal Leaf [Paan]
4. Mints [peppermint, spearmint, wintergreen, etc.]
5. Garlic
6. Cinnamon
7. Ginger
8. Tamarind
9. Anice
10. Parsley
11. Holy Basil [Tulsi]
12. Scallions
13. Lime
14. Lemon
15. Mustard Leaves
16. Lavender
17. Rose petals
18. Parrot Tulip petals
19. Turmeric


The flavors/aromas should be equally strong. This means that less
amounts of the stronger-flavored/stronger-aroma plants should be used.
Another thing in consideration is the causticity -- paan, ginger and
some of the others have caustic qualities. The higher the causticity
of the plant the less of it should be added.

I might add some other plants!
