Mixing Herbs

In Nancy Drew: Midnight in Salem, Nancy volunteers to help Lauren at her shop, Luminous Infusions. At the back counter, read the notepad with the patient’s illnesses. Then refer to the old, worn book for explanations of what each herb cures.

Double-click on each herb on the counter to identify what it is. When you single-click and herb, it has a yellow highlight around it so you know it is selected.

Click on the mortar and pestle to add that ingredient once. The first two ingredients will appear on the square, green plate to the left, so you can click on them to see what the first two you added are, in case you forgot.

  • Unbearable conditions require 3 doses of the herb needed.
  • Moderate conditions require 2 doses of the herb.
  • Slight conditions require only 1 does of the herb.


Here are the ailments and herbs that cure them:

  • Indigestion = Cinnamon
  • Headaches = Feverfew
  • Nausea = Ginger
  • Memory Conditions = Sage
  • High blood pressure = Garlic
  • Liver conditions = Our Lady’s Thistle
  • Anxiety = Chamomile/Camomile
  • *Rosemary
  • **Starwort
  • ***Sweet Marjoram

*Rosemary – you can find this bright green herb growing along the path in the forest.
**Starwort – also called Aster, you have to earn this purple flower.

***Sweet Marjoram – This is found in the locked box on the counter. If you click on the box, Lauren will tell you she is missing the key, and that it is somewhere in the shop. Locate the missing key on the table display shown in the video. Use it on the box to unlock sweet marjoram.
